  1. Today @royreed.bsky.social and I got our advance author copies of 'London's Ghost Signs', the reissue of our 2021 book, 'Ghost Signs: A London Story'.

    Our new publisher, Metro, has done a great job of reproducing all the original content (with updates) in the new compact format, and the book goes on general sale in October/November.

    There's more about the book at ghostsigns.co.uk/book and it'll be on sale in the BLAG shop (bl.ag/shop) when the time comes.

  6. The two 'Commit No Nuisance' #ghostsigns on the corner of Great Guildford Street and Doyce Street, Southwark just south of the River Thames in London. They are a euphemism for "don't urinate against this wall".

  11. Somehow my Ghostsigns email address has been linked to the fictitious business, Bovril Sign Brixton.

    Which makes for some bizarre spam...

    That said, if Andrew can reduce my fuel expenditure on Bovril Sign Brixton, then I could be in the money as the current spend is a grand total of £0 per annum...

    For those interested, the sign in question is this one, which I wrote a little bit about here: ghostsigns.co.uk/2018/06/bovri.
