The IPKat is gratified that so many people are watching his words so closely and felt the need to set him right over the Anne Atkins/carol singing issue. Ilanah in particular is grateful that so many correspondants blamed Jeremy for her "mistake".
The Kat concedes that Mrs Atkins may well have been referring to a licence persuant to the Licensing Act 2003, though he maintains that her words were ambiguous.
Thanks for all your emails/comments (though the Kat has got the message now).
