Hi Phoenician Trader
I'm sub-editing your article on Marrakech, the recommended version is here: A87812265 and you'll need to subscribe to that
I had always thought the city was spelt Marrakesh, and a quick google I find it's bothso I've added a footnote to that effect. I'll begin reading through now and come back to you with any queries

Yves Saint Lawrence, do you mean Yves Saint Laurent (the designer)?

I've changed it to Laurent
Do you want me to mention Pierre Bergé in the text?
Other than that, my subbing is done and this can go back with your read-through and OK.

Thanks GB. It looks fab with it's tasteful smattering of italic text.
I wouldn't bother about Pierre B as he isn't famous (or if he is famous to you, you probably already know about Marrakech).

You are most welcome. I genuinely love subbing as I am bound to learn something.
I knew nought of Marrakech other than what I've seen in films, and at temperatures of 48°C I'm unlikely to visit, I found 40°C in Greece overpowering so what I know of the place now is thanks to you
I'll return the entry to the Eds now for its date with FP glory (it won't be long as the Coming Up page hasn't got many pendings).
See you on the Front Page!

You might love the city - and it is 20C there now.
Easyjet and BA fly there. It is huge fun, especially if you like donkeys.
