Geoff Walker recovering well


Following a number of e-mail and telephone enquiries received here at the blog office I contacted Geoff, Publishing Director Penguin Books NZ, to see what had happened and how he was making out - here is his response:

The cause was an unfortunate encounter early one morning a couple of weeks ago with a jug of boiling water, which decided to spill itself down my front. The burns were quite severe and I spent five days in semi-isolation in the burns unit at Middlemore Hospital. But I’m home now, seeing the district nurse every day, and the medics say I’m healing extremely well, so the current news is good. I’ll be back at work before too long, just time to put in a few weeks before I move on from Penguin next month.
