He's just very bad at advertising! Google is your friend

Actually, it doesn't seem to be. I still can find no reference to the new book?

Lulu?

You need to work on your Google-Fu Dan It's No1 in a google search of Geoff's surname and the given name of the Scottish singer. Remind me not to pick you for a Charades partner!

Found it, but, had to go directly to the website named for the English singer and search for it there. Thanks Jack.

Sincere apologies, Jack! And you are correct, a lot of the subtleties of many posts go right over my head.

I didn't want any Scottish posters objecting to having their heritage misappropriated Dan

Very kind of you, Jack. Congrats on the new book and knowledge, Charlie.

I see that Geofrrey Tweedale also wrote a 104 page book "Stan Shaw, Master Cutler: The Story of a Sheffield Craftsman". There are used copies in good condition from as low as $31 according to bookfinder.com. Is that already in your libraries, Jack, Charlie?

Books will, once again, become popular if the lights go out.

I just received my copy of the 3rd edition. M Murphy Slaw , books are still popular with some of us! You would look a long time online to find a fraction of the information contained in Tweedale's directories.

Yes, although I can't find it at the moment!!

Do you have this in your collection Charlie? I just got a copy this week and as an Aussie it’s been fascinating.

Two great books gifted by Jack.

Both books enrich one's understanding of the history of British cutlery.
