October 16, 20196 yr One I've not read, and didn't know about until a couple of days ago. Rifleman, by Victor Gregg. Served all over the place. He turned 100 the other day and was on breakfast TV. What a character he is, full of stories, funny, sad etc. Certainly will be getting it.
October 16, 20196 yr A lot of hotels, usually leave quite a popular book in your room, bedside drawer usually. Spoiler alert, the main guy dies but he comes back.
October 16, 20196 yr Getting a Northern Rail Timetable and not reaching the airport on time. Edited October 16, 20196 yr by leigh white

Strangely, my lad has had a short story entered into a school competition, which has been accepted for publication in a northwest book of the best in the area. Does that count?

I wasn't taking the piss, I genuinely had it in my head that you either wrote or were writing a book. Perhaps I'm mixing you up with someone else, mate.

I wrote one on my experiences as you know full well and have commented on many times, it was good therapy at the time. Too much of a muchness now.
October 16, 20196 yr That poster called Den had a book of poems didn't he. Think he left years ago though.
October 16, 20196 yr I wrote a book on children’s fitness and healthy eating, then got told to get to fuck by the publishers because it wouldn’t hit a mass appeal, so made it into a poster for kids in schools

I'm sure it's more substantial than that...

Too much of a muchness now. Like I said, I wasn't taking the piss, I honestly couldn't remember if it was you or not. And I agree with the giant Blackpool umpa-lumpa, it'd be a far more interesting read than that other shite.

Does that count? Might not be the case for you, but often these are basically scams where they get people to buy the books which then pays for the very limited publishing and profit for them running the scheme.
