Philip Whiteland - the man behind Josiah and Archibald (which makes it sound like we're in a queue!)

So it does! Thanks for letting me know, Alicia. I'll try again :-)
Got it.Interesting - so many people are horrible with roundabouts. Especially if they go the opposite way than you are used to, due to not driving on the right side of the road.
I learned them (called glorietas) when I learned to drive in Mexico City - once you can drive there, you can drive almost everywhere else. Except possibly India.

Sounds like a story in its own right :-)
Talk about the law of diminishing returns! I've just been looking at the monthly totals for sales of my books. For May, it goes like this:2011-2012 391
2012-2013 355
2013-2014 76
2014-2015 24
2015-2016 11
2016-2017 10
The interesting thing is that, in 2011-2012, I only had one title on sale and sold 391 copies, now I have four titles and I struggle to make double figures. Can I have a time machine, please? ;-)
I see there's talk of Stoke becoming a City of Culture! I had some thoughts on this topic a few months back:http://philwhiteland.blogspot.co.uk/2...

Well maybe he would have considered you young and happening?
Gingerlily - Mistress Lantern wrote: "Well maybe he would have considered you young and happening?"I wasn't even considered young and happening when I was young and happening!
A cruel injustice!
Gingerlily - Mistress Lantern wrote: "A cruel injustice!"Harsh, but fair, I think ;-)
Well I suppose we can't all happen.
Gingerlily - Mistress Lantern wrote: "Well I suppose we can't all happen."I never knew you were from Yorkshire!
I was born in Lincolnshire. And spent pretty much all my life in Ireland. As it happens ;)

Well I was only 6 weeks old at the time, so my map-reading skills weren't as finely honed as they are now.
Well 6 weeks previous to that, you managed to find your way out of a dark place into the light - with no map at all!! :-)

Probably a bit like Jeremy Corbyn is feeling at the moment...... pushed out of office! :-)
Did someone slap him and make him cry?
Gingerlily - Mistress Lantern wrote: "Did someone slap him and make him cry?"He does have that appearance, doesn't he?
Well would you be laughing in his position?
Gingerlily - Mistress Lantern wrote: "Well would you be laughing in his position?"I'm not sure that I know his position, do you??
T4bsF (Call me Flo) wrote: "Page 59 KS"Oh, that old thing!
KS - Kimo Sabe? King Size? Kanga Shoo?
Kama Sutra ............ although Tonto did get into some funny positions!
I've been trying this new Amazon Instant Preview lark on my blog - www.philwhiteland.blogspot.co.uk Has anyone else tried this?
Excellent, and with a faint taste of spearmint. Idioms are definitely my cup of tea.

But of course they are. Would I give you anything else?
Gingerlily - Mistress Lantern wrote: "But of course they are. Would I give you anything else?"Milk chocolate digestives are an abomination
Just give them all to me and I'll dispose of them safely.

Ahem. Dungeon....
....more apologies (she says quickly)!!
Thats better. Have a nice cup of tea.
I wish I knew what was going on in here...then again, perhaps not!
Much better not , Philip. Unless you want to visit the dungeon?
Don't go there Philip - I didn't want to chance it!
Hello!That's about it, really. Just letting you know that I'm not dead yet, although I have had 'man-flu' for the last few days, so that's near enough ;-)
