THE WAIT IS FINALLY OVER

Greetings.
The wait is finally over.
This day I spent three hours at Bookbinders of London.

 Here I am with the CEO, Mr Simon Bailey.
Bookbinders of London is a reputable family run printing business located in Highbury, North London, providing a one stop shop for printing & binding needs and have been in business for over one hundred years.
Class.
I duly paid for a prototype copy of Portrait of a Legend and other Folks.
A word of warning.
This book will be of the highest quality and will not be cheap, also, the website to pre order a copy will shortly be online.
All is good so far.
Bless.
