Cornflakes Packet In My Shoe

Richard Dickson

Somewhat late in life I decided to write a book based on an idea which had been kicking around in my head for some time. The story concerns some antique dealers who meet every Friday at 4am in the Caledonian Antique Market in Bermondsey in all weathers. The group spent a lot of time laughing about the futility of trying to deal with the rain, frost, and snow. When not soaking wet we are cold and shivery but turn up every week without fail because they love every minute of it.
A buying trip to East Anglia turned out to be very eventful and profitable with several twists in the plot which it is hoped that the reader will enjoy. The results of this trip enabled us to form a business partnership with a view to making our fortunes.
An unexpected inheritance enabled us to open a Mayfair showroom and stock it with our specialities of furniture, pictures, and ceramics.
Later books may reveal the outcome of this venture.

About the Author

Dickson, Richard: - The author is a laid back individual with a lively sense of humour. He is a proud family man with a wife, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, all of who he loves to bits. His working life has been mainly associated with furniture and he played amateur cricket and golf to a modest standard most of his adult life. Now in his late 70s, his body no longer lends itself to sporting activities.
