JPGR&B SUBS 19th Oct 2024		@carryonsidney Who was your brother?



carryonsidney 18th Oct 2024		Wonderholme was my bro's place, I only stopped there on one of my "return visits", to babysit it while he went off on a world tour!(91/92?) I originally left WH in 1986.



OldMod67 17th Oct 2024		Wow, that's flown by. The Wonderholme is still there... I'm hoping to locate the second volume at a decent price one day, but once out of print many local books get quite expensive.



carryonsidney 16th Oct 2024		Makes me a bit nostalgic when I see things like this but I then I remember its not far off 40 years since I moved away.



OldMod67 15th Oct 2024		@carryonsidney: Yeah, I missed them originally. They came out five or six years before I joined the book trade and were privately published. I've been keeping an eye out for a few years as I do like my local books, but the print runs can't have been massive. They crop up occasionally online, but usually expensive, the last one I saw online was about £90! I finally stumbled on book one in a chazza, priced at 75p, I nearly fell over.



carryonsidney 14th Oct 2024		Wow I have never seen or heard of one of those before!



OldMod67 13th Oct 2024		The second book in the series, West Howe Too : A changing corner of Dorset, followed in December 1983
