cragman 2,631 Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 Has anybody read any of the new Sean Frain trilogy of books recently released? I'm in two minds whether to buy one (but which?), all three or just say "f**k it" and stick to reading his late father Brian's stuff. (RIP). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Simoman 110 Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 You been on the meths Cragman Nearly bought the one on Garys Middletons dogs from Gylnn Jones a couple of weeks ago, he said it was selling well, but chose Dave Harcombes book every mans hand instead and enjoyed it .

What were you thinking of having done JD?.............maybe a hawk with a tiger in its talons and a ferret gripping it by the throat whilst holding a fox or something ............but done in poster paint with a very wide brush..........

cragman 2,631 Posted June 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 According to folk writing on smoochers, they edit articles at the CMsW...So there you have it, Frain's work was feckin' brilliant ALL the time, it's just that it was "kept from us", we were deprived. It could also explain why Plummers work was shite. I knew all along that he was genuine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
foxdropper 17,092 Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 Frain was at one time an understudy of plummers which helps explain his "style" of writing . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JOEB Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Fellman - Don't you go tut-tutting Mr Frains books now . If you did'nt pick up his new Middleton biography 6 times at least Sun'....... I'm a chinaman . Newboy and I had a heck of a job persuading him not to buy it .To make things even worse , he was'nt happy getting one free copy of Countrymaids from there stand - he had to take 2!!! . You work that one out :ph34r: ......... :11: . Maybe the big man ran out of bog paper Chief and has a woncky table indoors JOEB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nighttimenellie 4 Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Do these folk who write books have to self publish?, if so he must be selling enough to make money or he would soon stop, which begs the question, are we getting the standard of books we deserve, because lets face t , its us keeping him in the money.
