Have been a fan of Terry Pratchett since 1986. Extremely clever individual with fantastic imagination and wit. Don't be put off by the "Sci-fi" label, he writes about the human condition with such piercing insight. The first couple of Discworld novels were slow to start with, but he soon got...

Looks an interesting read. I'm afraid I was a second generation Mod in Leicester, in the late 70's/early 80's with a Vespa. Although, probably not as vibrant as the 60's, Silver street was a bit of a magnet for me and my mates, though all around the clock tower area had its pubs and night clubs.

I don't know if this is of any help Peter, but I use one of these, and find it invaluable, and also a bit cheaper, with more features; https://www.amazon.co.uk/JJC-Multi-Function-Control-Fujifilm-Replaces/dp/B00GGANE1A
