Scratter here! Dicky Scratter!

I don't believe it!

Bland regained consciousness after lunch and came to my club where he informed me he has secured an arrangement with Tangent Books of Bristol to co-publish Donwood's 'classic' Catacombs of Terror!

According to Bland, Tangent Books will pay for the design and typesetting and share the print cost of the book if Scratter & Pomace meet Blimfield's and Bland's fees. Tangent seem to think the book will be popular in The Americas. I can't imagine why. In short, it means we have to raise another £180 with a day to go.

Bland assures me that Donwood has many admirers who will rally to the cause. He says there may even be a small surplus - enough for lunch!
