I’ll put it in the diary.

Thanks Nicholas. It’s actually easier to get a copy directly from the publishers,Etruscan, in America. Shops here aren’t stocking it. It’s only available online in Ireland.

Ogham?

Looking forward to a listen to First Cut. If it’s good enough for Kathy Reichs …

Reminds me, weirdly, of my least favourite NPR programme, the Car Talk. I hope that’s died a death.

Now THAT’S a bike helmet! I hope you got the last inscribed copy. That would be a good sign. Here’s to the TBR pile. Go Niners.

Decided I needed a bike ride down #SunsetDunes, so I cranked on up from there to Bookshop West Portal, & they indeed had a signed copy of THE RED BRANCH! Will report back when it's reached the bottom of my TBR pile, which will prolly be...a while

That’s the one, on both counts. It was Damien. Lillian runs a great independent bookshop. I hope you enjoy it. Don’t keep it to yourself if you do!

Hi T.J. What podcast might I ask? Bookshop West Portal have copies. Say hello to the fabulous Lillian Van Cleve if you venture there.

I think I recognise that one. I’m thrilled that you enjoyed it David. Thank you so much.

Praise indeed from the author of Big Time. Thrilled you liked it Rus.

Hi Paul. Unfortunately not. Heading home shortly.

Hugely enjoyed the chat Damien. Thanks for having me.

Mungojerrie or Griddlebone.
