My copy of the Dickens is two books in one ; Reprinted Pieces ( all the politics) and The Lazy Tour of Two Idle Apprentices . I got the MacMillan 1925 ; which is identical to the much more expensive 1896 edition. Less than a fiver . Think I have enjoyed the Reprinted Pieces best to be honest meatier and not so frivolous . I suppose I come at Dickens as a man of serious intent On that note ; I learnt today that Thomas Hardy got himself shipped many miles to get cremated ; there seemed to have been few crematoriums at the time . I wonder how many writers pre-planned their funerals ; I may work on that one ; that would make an interesting gothic road trip . Probably just anticipating the Manamas arrival tomorrow, Do you know of any writers and artists that pre-planned their funerals ? Love Rabbit holes. I did that trip in the lakes when I was 17 Ruskin; Wordsworth ; Beatrix Potter etc. No money and a hell of a lot of walking ; not by train haha. Been diverted as well from Unica Zurin's The Man in Jasmine to Henri Michaux (liking his stuff a lot) . She is a beautiful writer and that begs another question ; how many writers landed up in Mental Hospitals ? and why.? If you know any ; help me out . I think that magical realism is quite far out man and am interested in that side of things . Take Richard Dadd ; his characters are not so much the production of a mad man but are based on the Bestiaries etc . ; what about the dude that helped write the Oxford dictionary . Insanity is all relative ; but when violence enters the ring ; these people are condemned to one very very long writing retreat . Hello Jeremy . P.S not forgetting Blake and De Quincies addiction etc . Maybe it represented people in search of Utopias for whom ordinary dreariness was never going to be enough perhaps. Maybe I should reread the Road to Xanadu . These road trip things have got my imagination going even if it is just an internalised trip.
@@paulmagrs-g8n There is a Waterstones in town still, in the arcade that Marks and Spencer's is in. For a while we had two branches which did seem a bit excessive. But I'd have preferred they kept the other one.

Paul, do you have a P.O. box for us to write you? If so, can you share? Love your videos.
Loved that MOORCOCK Doctor Who book. Made that cosmology mesh with his own.
Was that a Wild Jeremy or … Bigfoot?!

Sorry to report but that Waterstones in Lancaster near the Merchants is no more. It's now a restaurant!
