The six children and step children of my late father are this week swapping emails about the annual pre Christmas meal and present swap we have with many of our kids in Shipston where Dad and his second wife Helen live and are buried. All will smile as I mention tomatoes and Dr Tom Winnifrith.

I continue to sort through the 40 cases of books belonging to my late father. We are now onto two shelves of books written by family members which contain some of the most boring works in the history of the English language, notably several books of sermons given by one ancestor in the 1800s. But it is the non family books that throw up some truly eclectic gems. Can you beat this pair below for your light holiday reading?
