Well, it’s a bank holiday weekend in the UK. This usually means rain, cold, damp etc but this weekend is absolutely glorious in London. Amazing!

A couple of bits of housekeeping. Congratulations to all those who have enjoyed a good season and huge congratulations to Aston Villa for their success in Europe. A fantastic achievement after many years of pain. I’d also like to congratulate Arsenal on claiming the Premier League (eventually!) but obviously can’t and won’t. The only consolation is that this will be the last time in my lifetime that the worthy burghers of Islington have anything to get excited about. Gillingham went from world-beaters to relegation certainties in about three months before a late scramble means they eventually ended up 17th.
The gallant youths at FC Deportivo Galicia had a challenging season and played over 50 heroes. We go again in the Combined Counties in August. Tomorrow is PARTY TIME! See below, all welcome.

Next week, we are all spoilt for choice! Loads of programme fairs. The week after my favourite West London fair is back and on the same day Retro Football Shirts are in town. Busy, busy.



…and just when you thought it was all over, it’s isn’t now as Enfield Town are hosting their first ever event and in July Stephen White has an enormous bookfest in Bradford. Enjoy!

UK BOOKFEST

Bradford Bookfest

Our first bookfest in our new long-term venue, 100,000 books for people of all ages and interests. Mostly second-hand but some brand new.

This venue at Albion Mills will now be the hub of all our UK Bookfest activity, we will still be doing pop-up events around the country but this will be our base and we’ll run three bookfests a year from here. This bookfest is timed to run parallel with the Bradford Literature Festival (check them out!) and will make Bradford the place to be for book lovers this summer.

As usual at our bookfest we’ll have tens of thousands of second-hand books ranging from baby through to adult.

Huge range of Adult and Children books

3-11 July Albion Mills, Albion Road, Bradford, BD10 9TQ.
