If you're in the area on Saturday, why not pop along to Hayling Island Market at the Community Centre, Station Road PO11 0HB, 12 to 4. Say hello, buy a book and read it on the beach afterwards. You know it makes sense

It's the middle of a very hot summer and yet my front step is a breeding ground for dead leaves. How can this be? It's not autumn. There are no obvious trees in the vicinity sending piles of their unwanted dead foliage my way and I only cleared them up a little while ago. It has me flummoxed.

Dawson & Lucy wish all their readers a fun Christmas & an exciting, madcap 2025 but with fewer near-death moments than they've experienced. Or assassins, psychopathic twin sisters, dogs with divided loyalties & unpleasant gangsters. They wouldn’t wish that on anyone www.amazon.co.uk/stores/autho...
