Finally, a book about South London

[The Dulwich Raider]

TODAY SOUTH LONDON, TOMORROW SOUTH LONDON

Hello everyone,

Some of you may know me from my occasional posts on here pointing to local-interest pieces I have contributed to Deserter.

Well, I'm happy to announce that we now have a book out featuring some of these tales, plus lots of new material that our publisher absolutely insisted we write.

Described by one Amazon reviewer as "Fear and Loathing meets The Good Beer Guide", it is a celebration of the glorious South and its inhabitants. Part guide, part travelogue, part never-ending pub crawl, it has been chosen as one of the Evening Standard's Best Comedy Books of 2018: https://www.standard.co.uk/shopping/esbest/books-dvds/best-comedy-books-and-dvds-of-2018-a4010706.html?fbclid=IwAR1GxXp3VwbCei5UFYR58BUwygM7H-LZDp2ExsYv-mqkZ9Ux_RJKQ0ieruQ

Dare I suggest it would make an ideal Christmas present for the slacking booze-hound in your life? We all know one. And it's usually us.

Always enjoyed your posts, DR. Good luck with the book sales.

And here's hoping there are still enough local boozers around here for Volume II in a few years' time. :-)

Apologies if anyone has had trouble getting their hands on a copy - incredibly, the first print run disappeared in days and then Amazon hoovered up all of the second.

At this rate I'll be making my offer to buy Dulwich College sooner than expected. I plan to turn it into a massive pub with dancing, water slides and everything.

The third print run is in shops now (and available online - read some reviews here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Today-South-London-Tomorrow/dp/1912618745/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=).
