Just a reminder that the new Dead Reckoning: A Josiah and Archibald novel is now available in both Kindle and paperback versions. To whet your appetite, here's Archibald's Note to his Mam (Part 1):"Dear Mam.
I’ve been meaning to tell you about how it went in Spain with Mr. O. but, what with you dashing ‘round doing stuff and me going to work, there just hasn’t been time.
I don’t really know where to start! It’s a bit like them essays you had to do at school about ‘What I Did On My Holidays’. I never knew what to put in them, either. I mean, nothing exciting ever happened, ‘cept that time when we buried Nan on Rhyl beach and forgot about her and it was just as well that the local pub sent out a search party, when she didn’t turn up at opening time, else we would never have found her.
You can’t say nothing exciting happened with my trip to Spain, that’s for certain.
I’ve got to say, from the off, it was good of Mr. O. to take me at all, ‘cause he was supposed to be taking his fiancée, Samantha…you know, Ms. Knight…but I think he took pity on me ‘cause of how I’d been dumped by my fiancée (yes, I know you didn’t think she was good enough for me!)
Any road up, it should have been dead straight forward. We’d just got to go to Spain and pick up this dead toff’s body so’s we could bring it back here for burial. Nothing to it! Only, it all went wrong from the start ‘cause our ‘plane got diverted to Paris and we got kicked off on account of they thought we were terrorists! Bloody cheek! Then no other ‘plane would touch us, so we had to go by coach to Alicante and that’s no ruddy joke, I can tell you!
Turns out, the body wasn’t in Alicante, after all, like what it should have been, and we had to go to this one-horse town called Santiago summatorother to get him. We bumped into this girl there, and she was a real looker, Mam. She offered to come with us, and the coffin, to help us and Mr. O. was all for it (I reckon he had a soft spot for her). Just as well she did, ‘cause we had to go back by road again, which was a pain, and get the ferry..."

Given that it is the weekend (allegedly) it must be time for another Gwladys and Aefelthrith adventure and, this week, Aefelthrith gives an answer but it's not quite what Gwladys was expecting!https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...

After a slight hiatus (it only hurts if I lift anything heavy!) Gwladys and Aefelthrith are back and, this time, Aefelthrith and Sergeant Argent are taking the air, and Gwladys is taking umbrage!https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
I know, I know, I've been all over the shop with publication of the Gwladys and Aefelthrith stories. One week it's late, another week it doesn't turn up at all, now this week, it's early! There's no consistency BUT there's always Gwladys and Aefelthrith and, this week, Aefelthrith asks questions and Sergeant Argent promises answers, much to Gwladys's chagrin!https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
We seem to have slipped to Sundays for our weekly ration of Gwladys and Aefelthrith! Here's this week's edition in which a message is delivered causing a number of sudden departures!https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
It's Sunday evening, a time that used be reserved for 'Sing Something Simple' and 'Songs of Praise' but now seems to have become the preserve of Gwladys and Aefelthrith! This week, Aefelthrith is affronted and Gwladys answers a caller at the back 🙂https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
Next episode in which the 'Captain' puts his cards on the table and Gwladys shuffles the deck!https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
Sunday brings us Aefelthrith, Gwladys and the inept men who surround them - and there are quite a few in this episode! This time, Gwladys blocks the way but Aefelthrith finds a way around.https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
It's Sunday and Gwladys puts a stop to one thing, only for Aefelthrith to start something else!https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
Gwladys decides it's time to show Aefelthrith 'the ropes' and all goes well until they both have the ground yanked from underneath them!https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
Gwladys, Aefelthrith and Dolly are reminiscing, not always fondly!https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
Sunday, used to be the time of day for the Top 20. Now it's time for Aefelthrith, Gwladys and a cast of thousands! This week, Aefelthrith and Dolly find a common interest and Gwladys is left holding the baby!https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
Sunday used to be Songs of Praise, now it's Antiques Roadshow and Countryfile, except on ABCTales, where it's Gwladys and Aefelthrith and, this time, Gwladys finds herself accused and the Watch are dragged in, literally!https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
f you're from my era, Sundays meant The Clitheroe Kid, Round the Horne and Sing Something Simple. If you were from Gwladys and Aefelthrith's era...well, it would probably be bedtime!https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
Sunday comes around a bit sharpish, doesn't it? Which, unfortunately, means that Monday does too - - but we won't talk about that. Instead, brighten up your Monday Eve with the latest episode from Gwladys and Aefelthrith in which Aefelthrith takes steps (reluctantly) and Dolly makes plans.https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
Sundays! When the boozers only used to open from noon until 2, just as the sound of 'With A Song In My Heart' reverberated across the airwaves to announce the start of 'Two-Way Family Favourites'. And here's another family favourite, in which Aefelthrith faces a tough decision and Gwladys has her suspicions confirmed!https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
Ah, Sunday, when the films in the afternoon were always about WW2, with either John Mills rescuing the free world (whilst undergoing dreadful privations or John Wayne doing the same thing (but without the privations). Now, Sunday means the next episode in the Further Chronicles series, in which Aefelthrith is about to embark on a great adventure! Or is she?https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
Sunday - a time of tea in bed or cooked breakfast or a Sunday Roast - or all three if you're particularly hedonistic! This Sunday, it's the morning after the night before, and not everyone's too happy about that.https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
Yes, yes, I know it's not Sunday but let's pretend for a bit, eh? Maybe Tuesday could be the new Sunday? Anyway, whatever day it is, it isn't a good day for either Gwladys or Aefelthrith, as we will discover:https://www.abctales.com/story/philwh...
