- Hi People again!
-
- My last message to locate James Herriot, the author of fantastic
- animal books, such as "Vets might fly", "Its shouldn't happen
- to a vet", "The Lord God made them all", .... , has received
- numerous replies from all the nice people over the world ...
-
- My sincere thanks to Susan, Vicki, John, Liz, Roberta, DNC, Paul,
- Bob, Alan, Marie, Steve, Mary and many others who never mention
- their names in their mail ( except their email address ) ...
-
- The information I received is:
- 1. James Herriot's real name is James Alfred White
- 2. Darrowby is actually in Thirsk, North Yorkshire, UK
- ( about 20 miles northnorthwest of York )
- 3. Writing to his publisher may help to locate him
- ( I will try but worry that I may not get the reply by April,
- when I leave for UK )
- 4. He may not be friendly to autograph hunter 8( (ie all his fans)
- 5. He may have retired from his practice and is living
- somewhere else (Scotland?) ;( (worst info I received)
-
- In his books, he works (owns) in a vet clinic in Darrowby.
- If I cannot find him, I suppose I can at least take some photos
- of the place. So anyone know the actual name of the clinic
- and the address ? In addition, please email to me if anyone
- have additional information not listed above! Thanks you all!
