Northumbrian, Grumpy old Sapper, old books, desert travel & Bletchley Park are my passions. Grew up in ๐จ๐พ and lived in ๐ฉ๐ช as a young man. I โค๏ธthem both.
I was wondering where you had gone!

โI want books written about me, songs sung about me. And then, hundreds of years from now, I want episodes from my life to be played out weekly at half past nine by some great heroic actor of the age.โ
โYeah, and I could be played by some tiny tit in a beard.โ

As I have somehow surpassed 7k followers on here I thought it might be nice to do a giveaway: All 7 of my books to one lovely winner. Just share and like to be in with a chance! ๐๐

I miss Valentina & her kiosk. I miss her positivity & warm-heartedness. Valentina has been undergoing cancer treatment. To cheer her up I turned the Valentinaโs Kiosk theme into a song & the legendary BBC Singers
have recorded it for her. Here is Valentinaโs Song. Conducted by David Hill.
Got my tickets for #NYE.
