RA on The Anglophile Channel: It Just Keeps Getting Better!

Soooo charming! Well done, Anglophile Channel! Wow. Just wow. The Anglophile Channel premiered Part One of its RA interview tonight at Midnight and what a joy it is to watch. Now, I will sleep… perchance, perhope – I know, I know…not a word, but I. Don’t. Care. – to dream of our relaxed, adorable, handsome, articulate, silly, self-effacing man. Sweet dreams are made of this… a little girl…

What a great year 2014 has been for RA (and for us): I think it ALL began with The Anglophile Channel 2013 British Artist of the Year Award! That was followed by Pinter/PROUST in NYC in January; the The Anglophile Channel interviews on its YouTube Channel in February; then Urban and The Shed Crew and its regular updates. In…
