BOOK UPDATE - The very late Yorkshire & NE Independents is finally finished and there will be a few on the stall at Stonham Barns. It will appear on the website on Monday evening and outstanding postal orders will go out from Tuesday.

The Midlands Majors book is still outstanding but I hope to have it finished sometime next week.

August should, supposedly, also see three new books. Not looking likely but I'll give it a go.

We'll be at Gosport on Sunday with the stall, a long weekend starting tomorrow. Should be on a bridge over the M4 at Bray on Friday afternoon if anyone is passing and around the Portsmouth area on Saturday with the camera.
