Well, once more life imitates art and I am tempted to start believing my own publicity as I had a rather strange moment on ebay yesterday. Trawling through the listings during lunch, I came across something which gave me pause:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120737846172&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
Looking at it, I had to laugh as I was reminded of the old Yellow Pages ad of the old duffer trawling bookshops for a copy of a book he'd written, 'Fly Fishing by J. R Hartley'. According to the listing I appear to have previously branched out into the toy making business....
I shoved in a bid just to complete the synchronicity of it all.. bizarre.
