nonnaB 4,895 Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 After the pretty windows, we haven't heard any more from AG. Is he working on another project? He posted some lovely pics too. Like so many of our regulars he is missed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brew 5,419 Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 You're right Waddo, a fact I hadn't realised. The car I we saw though was definitely a mini and not one of the booted variants. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AfferGorritt 868 Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 Firstly, thanks very much, Nonna, for your kind words! The bad penny has turned up again! Unfortunately I couldn’t get any local booksellers to stock my book, so it’s only available on Amazon. So unless you come from Nottingham and like murders you’re unlikely to find it! Bit of a niche market. I did have a small flurry of sales around Christmas and although the proceeds on each individual book is small (how to authors get rich?) the charity has benefited by about £60. Thanks to all who showed an interest. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LizzieM 9,510 Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 AG, several months ago I saw something on NWBW re your book and sent you a private message on here to let you know. As you seemed to have disappeared and hadn’t seen my message I decided to delete it quite recently! Glad you’ve returned anyway, I’ve always enjoyed your input.

AfferGorritt 868 Posted March 10, 2020 Report Share Posted March 10, 2020 Thanks, Lizzie. I did see your message thank you. I thought I’d replied, but apologies if I didn’t! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AfferGorritt 868 Posted April 23, 2021 Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 Revenue from the book still trickling in! Just had another £5.04 via PayPal. Don’t think I’ll give up the day job, but Winston’s Wish continue to benefit. Must have donated nearly £100 now, so as well as being fun to research and write it’s been worthwhile. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
