UPCOMING TITLE ALERT 🇪🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Everything Passes, Everything Remains is a cycle down memory lane with award-winning writer Chris Dolan as he explores our never-ending quest for identity – as citizens, individuals and nations. Along the way, he explores the highs and lows of growing up and growing older, and the demons that follow us as we try to make sense of our history and our place in it. Following Chris’s lifelong obsession with Spain, we accompany him, and his thoughts, as he traces the footsteps of Laurie Lee - as a 16-year-old boy and a 61-year-old man. He shares what he has learnt in those years and asks, how would any of us feel if we could meet our teenage selves, a ghost on the road?

HAPPY PUBLICATION day to Twenty Football Towns by HAPPY PUBLICATION day to Twenty Football Towns by Steve Leach. . Meat-and-potato pies, quirky club mascots, standing room paddocks and hyperlocal sponsors... at every local club, there is much more about ‘going to the match’ than the match itself. For many of us, the local club offers it all: passion, hope, heartache, drama. Steve Leach spends a year visiting the twenty towns and clubs that are special to him – towns and teams that may not be glamorous, but they are unique and, more importantly, they are home. .

If you’re managing to get out walking or cycling If you’re managing to get out walking or cycling this summer, or if you’re lucky enough to have lots of trees on your doorstep, then this guide is the perfect companion. It’s amazing how different walking in the countryside is when you can identify the beautiful trees that shelter your path along the way. The tree in this photo is a Rowan, which is native to Scotland and thrives in harsh environments, often seeming to grow out of bare rock. They are of value to wildlife and steeped in folklore; few other trees capture the spirit of the Scottish landscape in the same way as a rowan. .
