I had planned to come but we have a much needed home match at Sheffield United. But I will certainly be buying the book (pub. Herron)

It's great venue isn't it Les?.

Why the blinking flip* didn't I know about this earlier? One day's notice is one day too soon, or something.

*Pardon my language, but sometimes it's the only choice.

This thread reminds me that I first met David Eckersley of Herron Publishing 40 years ago at Sidmouth festival... many thanks to Roy for the books he's already put together and all best wishes for this one!
