Introduction by Mr. Pooter

         Why should I not publish my diary? I have often seen reminiscencesof people I have never even heard of, and I fail to see - because I do nothappen to be a 'Somebody' - why my diary should not be interesting. Myonly regret is that I did not commence it when I was a youth.
