Look- it's M&S. They're at it again
They're obsessed with my rotation.
I took my friend Maggie to Forum Books in Corbridge a while ago and bought her a copy of Leonard and Hungry Paul. She sent me this note yesterday: ‘I watched the first three episodes and just loved it… Absolutely delightful. Thanks so much for putting me onto such a gem.’ @ronanhession.bsky.social
