SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED

Wilson has been in the back garden with his Site Manager (Antony) and Assistant Site Manager (TT) contemplating his flat-pack museum.

After several minutes of staring at it from various angles, he confessed that it was all a lot heavier than he'd expected. 


Antony suggested that perhaps I could give him a hand with the lifting and moving but W said I was far too frail to be of any use.


Actually the word he used was feeble, but I pretended not to hear…


'There's nothing else for it,' Antony eventually announced, 'You're going to have to phone your brother Byron and get him to come down here sooner!'

NEW MUSEUM

There was great excitement this morning when Wilson spotted a huge delivery truck driving slowly down the road, delivering his New Museum!

He watched anxiously as the driver unloaded the panels and carried them into the muddy wasteland that is all that remains of our back garden…


Later Wilson confided that he was extremely excited to have his New Museum and was looking forward to Byron arriving to help him assemble it.


He also said that a New Museum was an ideal way to celebrate NOT leaving the EU today, as 'Mrs Theresa' had promised ('threatened', as W put it) more than 100 times we would!

QUADROPHENIA

I was not aware of this, but Wilson has confidently informed me (and subsequent research on Google appears to confirm it) that 2019 marks the 40th anniversary of the release of the Mod Classic Movie,
QUADROPHENIA!

Members and visitors to the Wonderful World of Wilson Facebook Group* will tomorrow receive an exclusive commemorative Quadrophenia Badge to print, cut out and stick on something – where you choose to stick it is, of course, entirely up to you…

REDESIGN

Wilson has redesigned the cover artwork for One Flew Over The Ant's Nest – he says it's to make it look bolder, but I think really he hopes that people might buy both versions, thinking they're different…

Incidentally, if your first-quarter 2019 calendar is almost used up, Wilson assures me that the next page will be ready to send out by Wednesday – unless he's started work on another novel by then!
_____________

'Stunning!' – TLS
'Brilliant' – The Guardian
'Easily the best book so far this year!' – Mail on Sunday
These are just a few of the book reviews Wilson would dearly love to have…

SUCCESSFUL SHOPPING TRIP

Wilson has returned triumphant from his trip to the village, having achieved all his goals!

Not only has he secured a Celebrity Book Signing deal, he's also bought a Mother's Day Card for his Mum, Mrs Vermilingua.


Actually the book shop had such an excellent selection of Mother's Day Cards that he couldn't decide which was most appropriate, so he bought two.


He lay them out in front of me so I could help him decide which one to send. I have to say, they both looked a bit passive-aggressive to me, but there you go…


He also made a bulk purchase of Tippex® Correcting Fluid – he uses a lot of it during the novel-writing process, but even so this quantity looks a tiny bit excessive!


I suppose he can always sell it on eBay when his novel-writing phase has passed…
