New season out now! Season 2 is here and you’ll love it. It’s a podcast but it’s funny and it’s made in parks. Put it in your lugholes x

We’re putting the finishing touches to City Parks, my next book which you can pre-order now and will be out on Apr 6 2023. There will be talks and launch events of course. We’re looking to visit new cities this time, especially in Wales, Ireland, Germany, Europe, Australia and the US. So if you fancy hosting do get in touch.

Thanks to David, Jack, Lisa and everyone else who kindly organised and came to my Leeds Lido talk. I’ll be back at Hyde Park Book Club soon because it’s an amazing venue. Nice to meet Francesca and Caroline from Yorkshire Swimworks and Otley Lido’s re-opening campaign.

Catherine O’Flynn is one of the best novelists in Britain. She’s also as obsessed with Birmingham as I am. So I was very happy that David Baldwin asked us both to do this night in Birmingham on Nov 9 where we will dress up like Kay Alexander and Alan Towers, show some amazing Brummie TV and say some funny things. It will be so funny and so fun. It’s part of Square Eyes TV Festival and you should buy your tickets now, come down to mac and join us.

Thank you for all the kind words about the first season of my podcast Park Date! Eight episodes are ready for you to greedily hoof up through your nostrils or ears.

Season 2 is coming THIS SEPTEMBER…
