Did anyone else notice that our old mate kevin cropredy had posted a plug for Toms book on the portal?
I've just surfed back there and the plug seems to have vanished. weird one - it seems good old kev can post loads of stuff about his strange explorations, but plugging a book about megaliths is deemed beyond the pale.
I hope I'm mistaken, I'm sure the MP ed wouldn't be that petty.

When considering a website which deliberately excludes anything on TMA from their "Search for this site using Google" function, we need to start re-writing the definition of 'Petty'!

P.S. Congratu-fucking-lations, FourWinds! Can't wait to see it.

Apparently, it was removed because of some fecking spelling mistakes and because Andy B considers fecking to be a genuine swear word, which is the only controversy here.

That's fair enough by me. I'd rather any announcements about my book didn't have spelling mistakes. Still, it was nice of Kevin to mention it.
