It’s here! The new Grunty Fen Book!

Grunty Fennery and Mr South are delighted to announce that :

The Customs and Folklore of Grunty Fen

Customs and Folklore of Grunty Fen covers

is now available. This is the third book in the series written by Christopher South and is even more enjoyable than the previous two.

The nice young person, Annabel, at Burrows bookshop in Ely was the first to stock Customs closely followed by Toppings.  In Cambridge that lovely little bookshop, David’s, is your shop to visit for a copy.

Meanwhile, those lucky people that live in lovely Saffron Walden will be able to buy Customs locally; both the Tourist Information Centre and Harts Books now have stock.

And of course you can buy direct from Dennis’ shop:

Thrilling isn’t it?

A new book from Mr South

My nervous sister Miss Edna and I are thrilled to tell you that Mr South has finally written the third book in his series about Grunty Fen! Called The Customs and Folklore of Grunty Fen it’s currently being looked at for spelling and will be available this autumn.  I’m told that the book will indeed, using numerous pictures and words, describe the customs and folklore of Grunty Fen.

I’m particularly looking forward to the description of some of our local dances – “Celery Nellie” being a favourite of my youth and illustrated here (photo from Mr South’s latest book). I was not present on this particular occasion due to stocktaking.

We’re just giving you fair warning about the book at the moment – we’ll let you know once it’s published. Keep your eyes peeled!

Kindest regards
