Wish I had the time to put up or shut up ! So much info gathered with ones age and work.

Oh to retire,,,that will be the time to put so many records straight.

There is a book detailing the Gypsy legacy complete with hundreds of pics,,,just come on the market. Working with John Jones (Last weekend) I saw an early copy,,,will be with him again next weekend and jot the details down.

It traces the history early to the present day,,,of the Price and Lee heritage, also has a rare picture of JE working at the Appleby Fair.

I was talking with Jan Gregor the other day on the phone...he is the author of Circus Of The Scars...and a phenominal writer as those of you who read it know...I suggested he travel to England and begin a book about and collaborate with, Ken Dean and his long history and vast knowledge of the UK scene.
The story needs a strong writer who understands the game and who can dig and reveal and wring the heart out of it. Jan would be perfect. If I can ever put these two together, I will have accomplished something to be proud of.

If you haven't read Circus Of The Scars yet...google it and buy it. He told me he has some of the deluxe hard cover collector editions in hand.

Been on the road,,seems like forever!! so to update, the book on mention is The Gypsies Then and Now, by John McKale published 2009.

Not had a look for it on the net but sure its pretty expensive for a soft back.

The pic of Eagle was new to me and the sister of Adeline Price (Still doing the duckering on the UK showgrounds today) She is proberly the only authentic reader doing the works in the UK (If of course you believe that the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter from the run of the Lee family are the biz !!).

The season money wise is cr@p this year and punters faces would turn any milk sour.
