Just a quick headsup for one that’s been on my to-do list for well, ever. There’s a book out that falls into an unusual category, by a notable local teacher: Old friend of the blog Eryl Powell of Watling Street School – and it’s actually that rare beast, local fiction!

 Gloria the Ghost of Watling Street is a great read and I can highly recommend it – and if you have a kindle, you can read it right now! Otherwise, it’s a pocket-pleasing £2.99 from Amazon – you can get your copy be clicking the link here.

I’ve just today read it and it’s rather excellent – do give it a go. I hope Eryl is writing more!

If you order a copy, why not let readers know what you think? Comment here, mail me on BrownhillsBob at Googlemail dot com or tug my sleeve on social media.
