Been watching some of the BFI's excellent Here's A Health To The Barley Mow DVD today, which collects footage of various village folk customs from the early part of the 20th Century. It would be an understatement to say that the "Santa" in the 1919 Titchborne Village Christmas Mummers' Play came as a bit of a surprise.

My golf books: now both available for the first time as ebooks!

"As Frank Sinatra would sing, Nice Jumper goes 'straight down the middle'. How can a book about teenage boys, golf and Nottingham in the eighties be this good?" - Caitlin Moran

"Extremely funny - often laugh-out-loud funny, occasionally a threat to the intercostal muscles." - The Times

"Nice Jumper does for golf what Fever Pitch did for football. Funny, clever, and all-too-horribly true." -
