Deputising once more for Michelle Ward, I was delighted to again be joined by Sylvia Kent for her Book Club feature. The 75th anniversary is being celebrated at the Brentwood Ursuline School this coming Saturday afternoon 1st October. Sylvia said there might be a few tickets still available. If you’d like one give Sylvia a call on 01277 651062.
On this occasion, Sylvia brought with her, Roger Robinson who is a walking one man encyclopaedia on the comedy duo Laurel and Hardy. Apart from writing no less than 3 books linked to the duo, he’s also a member of the Laurel and Hardy Appreciation Society – The Sons of the Desert, organises monthly meetings for the Southend based group, SAPS AT SEA and the editor and feature writer for the quarterly Laurel and Hardy magazine – THE PERRY WINKLE. If you’d like to get on the mailing list for this magazine, it will only set you back £12 pa, call Roger on 01702 526187, e-mail him at roger.robinson5@btinternet.com or visit the SAPS website –https://www.saps-at-sea.co.uk – which is where you can also order the books.
