John Harry Robert Timpson OBE was a British journalist, best known as a radio presenter.
His experiences in broadcasting provided Timpson with material for several books: "Today and Yesterday" (1976), "The Lighter Side of Today" (1983) and "The Early Morning Book" (1986). After his retirement from the BBC he returned to Norfolk and continued writing, especially about England and East Anglia in particular. These included a novel "Paper Trail" published in 1989 and two works on the quirks and oddities of English life - "Timpson's England" (1987) and "Timpson's Towns" (1989). Subsequent books included "Timpson’s English Villages" (1992), "Timpson’s Other England (1993)", "Timpson’s English Country Inns" (1995) and "Timpson on the Verge" (2002).
In 1987 he was awarded an OBE for his services to broadcasting.
Easy to follow and really helpful. Supportive pictures with text to accompany the caption like message of the book. Quick and easy to read but with a good and helpful message
Straightforward and simple but that's all that's needed to get started. I wanted to recommend this to my friend who has had all sorts of problems, that I can now see started in her childhood (her father was a total waste of space).
