Scouse Bowl, super bowl
Bowled Over
While on my travels to find the best Scouse in Liverpool (the eating variety, that is) I had an e mail letter from writer John Kerrigan.
While I was sitting in Ma Boyle's trying out their version of Scouse, I read about John's book.
It's not like Talk Like the Scousers (mine £8.99 all good bookshops and bad ones).
So I'll let John explain.
Go on, la.
"A Bowl of Scouse' is a selection of stories that explore the forgotten people and hidden events in Liverpool's history - not just a bowl of scouse, more of a cultural feast."
I like that, John, tell me more. Go 'ed
"From the Beatles and Bessie Braddock, to Adolf Hitler and the Titanic, there are twenty five separate stories as varied and fascinating as the City of Liverpool itself."
The net profits and royalties from the book (£7.99) is donated to a Liverpool community based charity, and used on projects helping children in the developing world, and also homeless people in Liverpool.
Nice one , John, and I must say it's wonderfully illustrated throughout.
Great. Now, John ,can you plug my book.
