Hi Mr. Cornwell.

In your October 19th reply to Piotr Chmielarz’s question on why Sharpe hadn’t faced any Polish Lancers in the Peninsula, you replied that they were at Albuera and Sharpe wasn’t, which was why he hadn’t encountered them.  PLEASE tell me that you haven’t abandoned the idea of having Sharpe at Albuera, the toughest fight of the Peninsula.  If there is one battle of his that still needs to be told, it is that one, don’t you agree?
