DID YOU KNOW - Charles Dickens' A Tale of Two Cities was originally serialised in two Midlands newspapers?

It was the Bicester Times; it was the Worcester Times.

The Town by The Cross

I had a Lebanese Lunch and then read the news next to a candle of my choosing.

It was 'the post hummus papers of the pick wick club'

D'you know what? Much as this threat has tickled me, I absolutely hate Dickens' books. I can't even watch dramatisation of them.

Anyway. As you were, good folk 🤎
