Another special announcement…
As many of my friends, business colleagues, followers on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and of course those via these newsletters, will know that I have achieved a long held dream to self-publish a school project book about Newcastle upon Tyne from 38 years ago called “Newcastle Old and New The Story So Far”. I had 200 books printed late February 2016 and soft launched in March, well not only have we
reached another milestone with over 80 sales [in fact close to 90], but the book is now available to view before purchase at three outlets around the region.
TG Allen’s in Morpeth, the Morpeth Chantry Tourist Information shop and in the book sales department of the Newcastle City Library.
Incidentally the library is significant in more way than one because a young lad of 16 slaved away preparing the original for his school exams all those years ago – a touch of the Déjà vu?
Check out www.newcastleoldandnew.co.uk for more and I will update you on more places the book goes on sale..

Planned Events and Talks
Finally, I have had an intriguing request from David Hepworth of Newcastle City Library to take part in its book festival called “Books on Tyne” Nov 21-27 – in particular about the life journey to getting my Newcastle book to print. More details to follow…
I have also just booked a table at the Christmas Fair organised by the Rotary club for Saturday the 3rd of December 2016 at the Ponteland High School.
*If you would like to find out more about the Rotary xmas fair just pop me a line..
