New project
Now that the book is out I can concentrate on my new project - the new website for Swineshead.
Although I have a lot of stuff, as have one or two others who are involved, we are looking for any information and pix that we may not already have - so if anyone out there has any good bits and pieces that could go on this website, we would be very pleased to hear from them.
You can contact me via my website or Duncan Bray on 08458387246.

The new book.
The launch went very well and was the nicest book launch I have had so far. Rosie put on a splendid spread and everyone had a good time. We also sold some books............
Yesterday I did a book signing at Waterstones in Boston and sold a few more.
People are still asking me when they will be able to buy A History of Swineshead and I am pleased to say it may be reprinted next year some time.

Time of launch
The time of the book launch is 2pm-4pm.
I am just about to print out some posters to put around the village tomorrow morning. Then I must go out and water the garden after this lovely day. I'm sure it will need it.

Swineshead at War
Great news! The book will be launched on July 14th - four weeks from today. The launch will take place in the afternoon at the local art gallery, Arts Coritani, in Swineshead High Street. I haven't been given the exact time yet but will let you know when I do. I understand it will be either 2pm or 3pm.
Will get back to you with that detail as soon as possible .

Well our evening of reminiscences went well and everyone seemed to enjoy it. After taking out expenses we made £172, which went to the newly formed youth group in the village. Altogether a successful evening.
News of my next book: it is now expected to be out in July and we shall be having a launch at the Art Gallery as usual.
Not much else to report as family matters seem to be taking over at present. I haven't got back to working on the old documents recently - must do so before long.

Update
Everything is coming along nicely for our evening of reminiscences. There will be lots of old photographs of Swineshead for people to look at, newspaper cuttings, old documents and much more. I hope you will all come along on the night. It is on Friday 28th March from 7pm to 9pm and will be in the Methodist Chapel in High Street. Do come and join us.
I will be happy to answer any family history questions you may have.
