Hello there

[Ciarn]

Hi everyone! Great site and message board, just stumbled over it for the first time....

I'm an author who's just written a humorous nostalgia book... if people are interested, I'll post a link up to the book's web site (if I'm allowed to do that?). I'd be really interested to see what you guys make of it

Re: Hello there

Thanks for the warm welcome all, it's much appreciated

Heheh Danny.... here's the link:

www.thecrapolddays.com

As you might guess from the name, it's a comedy book that takes a different angle on nostalgia - recalling what was rubbish about the past (Izal toilet paper for instance!)... but trying to do it in a light hearted and still nostalgic way. Be warned, you will need a sense of humour, and there's a touch of choice language here and there!

There are some sample entries up on the site, please do let me know what you make of it, any feedback would be great.

Wasn't sure whether to post the link in this thread, or whether it should belong elsewhere, so kind mods please feel free to move it if necessary!

Pre-ordered my copy already

Looks just the type of book I love.
I've given this a sticky thread in the Books section

Daz - top notch stuff! Many thanks for the sticky, not to mention for pre-ordering a copy of the book.... Can't say thanks enough!

Re: Hello there

Looks like it's going to expand into a cool site ----- am going to wait until Daz reviews the book before I order one myself but
