Editor's blog 23 April 2009: Happy Birthday, Mr Roth

On my way home from a wonderful lunch in honour of Andrew Roth, author of Parliamentary Profiles and Westminster Confidential. Today is Andrew's 90th birthday, and despite an eight-year working partnership on mty old stomping ground of British Journal of Healthcare Management, our first meeting.

The word 'legend' is much over-used, but it's not about him. Thank you Andrew, and a very Happy Birthday.

P.S. / addendum - this graceful piece from The Guardian's Michael White is worth reading.
