Book Review

Castles in the air: the restoration adventures of two young optimists and a crumbling old mansion by Judy Corbett

9th June 2022 Going Postal 0

Bit of a different style of review this time. I know there are a few who enjoy a spooky story on GP, as do I – especially when it’s one apparently based in reality. So [more…]

Stories from the Shelf, Volume One

25th May 2022 Roger Ackroyd 0

Browsing secondhand bookshop shelves has been one of life’s delights, from the time I was barely in my teens and visiting the Croydon Bookshop in the Old Town (now long demolished to accommodate the flyover) [more…]

Lee Brilleaux: rock n roll gentleman, by Zoë Howe

18th April 2022 Going Postal 0

The time is the mid 1970s. The place is Canvey Island. The band is the dynamic “proto-punk” outfit known as Dr Feelgood. (I put inverted commas round proto-punk because, although that is what some music [more…]

Book Review

The Real Anthony Fauci, By Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

8th March 2022 Going Postal 0

The first step is to give up the illusion that the primary purpose of modern medical research is to improve American’s health. In our opinion, the primary purpose of commercially funded clinical research is to [more…]

Book Review: The Ratline

20th January 2022 Going Postal 0

I don’t read non-fiction books that often, however I’m glad I picked The Ratline up when I was idly browsing suitable reading material for a holiday last year (the holiday got cancelled). For, those (like [more…]
