Of pedigree unknown. 😆


Recommended Posts


First read 'of pedigree unknown,' nearly 50 years ago, a paperback edition.

An old mate of mine  who's about 18 months older than me, got it as a Christmas present.

Think it was 1977.

Really enjoyed it.

Borrowed it off him so many times, he gave it to me lol.

Both main Drabble books are well worth a read.

 

Which ones are they, mate?

I've read a few of them, years ago.

Looked online yesterday, and didn't realise he'd written so many!!

Forgot to say, it's been that long since I read them, only 'of pedigree unknown' was the one I remembered.

Of Pedigree Unknown and A Weasle in my Meatsafe are/were the 'go too' Drabble books imo.

Rebecca the Lurcher by Andrew Simpson is also an enjoyable, nostalgic read.

I borrowed Rebecca from the library many years ago but do not own it. The fact that I do not own the book would suggest that none of the lads from my estate stole it from the library.

I believe the lurcher in this postcard is Rebecca. Found it in an art gallery in Bradford and bought on the quiet during a day spent trying to impress a girl who was a LACS supporting art student. Happy days.
