Thank you so much you’re the first person (outside of publishers and friends kids) to have read it! I’m very pleased you enjoyed it.

This was one of the funniest children’s books I’ve ever read. Not just for fans of Horrible Histories, this is a fantastically witty and engaging story with (&I don’t use this lightly) Terry Pratchett-esq humour, sprinkled with historical facts & a talking guinea pig. Loved it!

Thankfully she is fine. I got it too but milder version. There is no logic that would have convinced me to drive to my parents. Not least the chance if giving it to my parents...

Had such a blast doing this with me old mate Paul, give it a listen if you like free-form chat loosely based around a shared love of comedy …

Nothing to do with presence of mind Or self righteousness. It was government guidelines. I didn’t think ‘getting childcare’ was essential travel. And there’s ‘hysteria’ as you put it, because people stayed at home even when their loved ones were dying.
