I have, seems amazing to me, finished the project (of recording the whole of the Swallows and Amazons series), after twelve years, and am now gradually adding to the cassette version by bringing them out on CD.

A Note for the USA
Those nice Americans who are driven to this website might like to know that I send a single title for $30 at present including shipping (practically at cost) as a return for a delightful web-review from a lady with seven children (I think I counted right) who thus sends so many others to enquire. Mind you, you have to be a Nice American. The crunch being converting your dollar checks (sic) into Sterling, the more titles you buy, the Nicer you will seem. But one title is alright.

Other News

Those who remember Dr Who and Pyramids of Mars, where my evil character of Sutekh was born, may like to know that Lawrence Miles has written more scripts which allow me to play Sutekh in a series of CD's called Faction Paradox. There is : "Coming to Dust," " The Ship of a Billion Years" "Body Politic" - and now number Four: 'Words from Nine Divinities' is out.

Both are produced by Magic Bullet and can be obtained from shops now.

In addition, as something completely different, last autumn I was called back to the televised world of Doctor Who to give my vocal interpretation of Satan, aka The Beast, in The Impossible Planet and The Satan Pit, with David Tennant as my enemy. As I did everything in a recording booth, alone, I was tempted to write to David and say what a pleasure it had been not working with him. I’m sure I’d have been too nervous had the stars been there !
