This is great. You'll be pleased to know that Paul Smith's talk on Hartcliffe was packed out at last weekend's Bristol Radical History Festival, and his book one of the best sellers!

Yes, I was there and was the next speaker. 🙂

Lol but I'm glad his book's done so well

Oh, that's really good - I somehow hadn't seen that before now!
