Dear Jean Paul,
I would like to thank you for being considerate of me and my dislike of
being mistaken for another person. Not that I am so conceited to think that
I should be the only Jean on the list, but I did not appreciate some off

I had signed my last comment with Sinead which I believe is Gaelic for
Janet and I am quite happy to use that name on the list to enable you to
use Jean.
One of my grandsons is called Jean-Luc and I like the double Christian name
tradition.
Sinead/Jean
