Happy Christmas to you and your family too mate 🎄🎁⛄
Poor old doggo , we’ve been trying to get Hank’s weight down since we bought him home from the shelter but it’s pretty tricky as he lives for food and is a bit of a pork beast 😟

Play it right and you can probably get that big bag of army men too 😜
These are the rules I'm playing by this year, screw all the George Michael refuseniks they shoulda had faith 😂
Sorry it was so rough for you mate 😔
The same thing applies to left over panettone or left over Christmas pudding , which apparently should be made into trifle, tiramisu, bread and butter pudding or home made ice cream, who are these wasteful bastards that have these things "just lying around" 😬 Smug gits or Nigella Lawson is my guess😉
It's a big old happy Thanksgiving right back at ya Scott 😉🤣
Happy Thanksgiving American chums , hope you have a massive turkey blowout and a damned sexy time , save me a slice of pecan pie but you can keep your canned squirty cream thanks 😉🤣
Oh , that's awful news Ian 😔 , I'm so sorry for you and Oz, take care of yourself fella and yes he's the best boy , so please give him a gentle hug from us. We know the pain you've got to go through and if there's something you need to distract you from all that just shout out 💔
Yes, they have a real Brotherhood of the Wolf crossed with Interview with a Vampire vibe don't they. Jay is a great raconteur, he and Joe were obviously great mates and fans of each others books. Funny enough at the dates Jay did in London John Gwynne was the guest interviewer 🤘😎🤘
On the subject of brilliant trilogies that I've read, I also finished Empire of The Dawn by Jay Kristoff in the last couple of weeks. His Empire trilogy is all about vampires and it's fabulous. I got to meet him last week in Bath where he was interviewed by Joe Abercrombie, many books got signed 😁
His previous books are brilliant as well, I got the first two parts of The Bloodsworn Saga last Christmas & devoured them then I went on to pick up The Faithful & The Fallen quadrology which I also really loved. John Gwynne is a Viking reenactor in his spare time too, so his battle scenes are great.
I finished the trilogy a couple of weeks ago when the last part Fury of the God came out in paperback, it's a fabulous read all the way through and hugely gameable. Take your pick which system you'd use but each one of the three books is chock full of ideas and fantastic action scenes to inspire us.

It's quite likely my friend 😁, if not hers then definitely a bawdy predecessor 🤣
Bloody hell , your restraint is amazing. I look forward to seeing what’s in there mate.
Sounds amazing and colour me interested if you decide to do it online ❤️
No other word has done more damage to the craft of writing in recent years than “content”. Even if you’re using the word “content” ironically, or as a cute little joke, don’t. When someone calls writing “content” they’re pissing on someone’s hard work & passion. “Content” is Technosatan’s henchword.

Looking forward to seeing it in print Tom, it will fit in just nicely with all of your other books we have on the bookshelf 😁
We absolutely love these , however , none of the bulbs we planted last year ever came up. So fingers crossed that we get it right this time and we’ll have some grow in the garden soon.
If anyone (in the UK) would like a signed and personalised first edition hardback of this from me, please email me at hello@tom-cox.com. I'll also send you one of my mum's handmade linoprint bookmarks.

He bloody well is Andy , definitely one of my favorite modern British authors , I have most of his books except surprisingly his cat related ones. I had a few which I enjoyed immensely but when we lost our Birman girls a few years ago I let a lot of the cat related stuff we had go as it was too sad.
Brilliant news Chris, I’m sure you’ll enjoy the book as much as I did.

Bafflingly there are still people out there in the world who think being passionate about nature is “kind of weird”. or “a niche interest”. These people have it all wrong. Nature isn’t some quirky sideline to the main business. It IS the main business.
