As a pensioner I can not invest in the next, nor go on expensive holidays, but no need! Spitalfields has enough history and sights to inspire and excite and I have been back five times already, always discovering something new. Not only that, but I have taken to exploring London in quite a new way and it’s very exciting. I shall definitely order the new book from my library.

I do hope the locals are grateful, it’s a lot of work, and it’s beautifully executed. I’m not from your manor, I’m from the Elephant, but it’s wonderful to see so much of your local past illuminated and brought to life for us all.

Simply from the hours of entertainment value that I have had personally from your writings etc., then I would gladly stump up £50 or £100 in exchange for the book with the proviso that after costs (Book & postage) that you retain the rest as a donation. Just an idea….

I am on a fixed income (low !)and there must be many such as me who look forward to your daily writings but are stretched financially …. I would be so happy to give £20 towards the publication …. perhaps there are 49 other people who think likewise and that would be another £1,000 in the kitty ! …….
