Watching Father Ted’s a Christmassy Ted and remembered this nugget of pop trivia, the priest with the most boring voice Father Fitzgerald (Sean Barrett) in Ireland's largest lingeree section was the cover star of The Smith's single "How Soon is Now" a still from the 1958 film "Dunkirk".

If you’ve ever loved a cat, grab yourself a drink and have a read of this.
It's a year since George, the cat I adopted after finding him living in a bush in my garden, who subsequently went to live with my parents, left us. I've now made this tribute I wrote to him free for everyone to read: the-villager.ghost.io/lots-of-peop...
Lots Of People Will Unsubscribe As A Result Of This, Solely Because It's My Second Post In Consecutive Days, But The Fact Is My Cat Died And I Needed To Write About It
Back when I lived on the Norfolk-Suffolk border, a little over a decade ago, there was a running joke amongst people who knew me that my house was a kind of after-hours youth club for cats.

Any shares of this for algorithmical purposes much-appreciated. I'd love to get these books out of my spare room & into the world before my new novel comes out. I'll sign them all & I really am happy to let people choose what they pay.

All I have left of the 1000s of books I bought from my ex-publisher's warehouse are about 200 copies of Ring The Hill. I'd *love* to get them to good homes this week.
If you're in the UK & you'd like one, for the price of your choice (any price!), pls email me your address at hello@tom-cox.com.

@petepaphides.bsky.social Thought you might appreciate this. I bought a copy of Spirits Having Flown yesterday, and not only was it a bargain at £3.50 & plays perfectly, inside it had a merch flyer with fan club details. I’d quite like the necklace TBH.

Massively recommend this, and any other books by Tom come to think of it. 1983 is one of the best books I’ve read in a long time.
If you would like a signed hardback of 1983, I have LOADS here, due to the collapse of my publishers, who continue to fail to pay me the huge amount of money they owe.I am happy to do a "pay what you can afford" deal with anyone who wants one. Drop me a message at hello@tom-cox.com. More info below.
