Life certainly changed whilst I was away.
Take games as an example,they now have
lady Bishop chess sets and the Castles must
be fitted with disabled toilets. The pawns have
formed a union and the knights daren't jump without
permission from air traffic control. On top of all that, the
Queen isn't speaking to the King because he gave away his
kingdom for a horse. Things will never be the same on
Walton's mountain.

I am an ex-miner who has written the CUTHBERT SERIES of comedy books. I am hoping to provide my readers with escapism from the stresses and strains of everyday life and involve them in a timeless fictional Valley with larger than life characters which are developed throughout the books. Each book has its own theme and they can be read as part of the series or as stand-alone books.

And even more pushy Editors.
"Great Scott man, is that book on the Arctic ready yet?"
"This chap Darwin, if it's only a theory can't he sort it out before we publish?"
"Well that's great your Royal Highness, yes we can call it The Bible and name it after you but shouldn't you be running the country? Anyway, the cheques in the post Jim."

Visitor.
A visitor to my door asked "Have you seen
the light?" Being a bit grumpy I replied "For
goodness sake man If you've lost something
put posters on lamp-posts like everyone
else."

Christianity only spread slowly due to
idleness, if people had re-tweeted the
process would have gone viral.

Death Valley.
Death Valley is now on Amazon and it is the fourth in the Cuthbert series. An inspection of Cuthbert's graveyard causes him to check his burial records only to find that he had BURIED them instead of one of the bodies. New characters appear and some disappear, between the living and the dead nobody is sure where anybody is but it doesn't stop them looking in all the wrong places. An unexpected offer of help comes from a rival undertaker who seems to be rather cosy with the valley mafia which is like trying to trick the Devil out of his inheritance. Once again the inhabitants of the valley ride forth only to come in fifth.

Had a giant winged creature in the house today, I think it was a Red Baron moth. Imagine the mess if it had been a Sopwith Camel.

FBI wanted list.
I don't understand the FBI's ten most wanted list. Why don't they just keep them when they come in for the photo?
