Delighted that the swifts are still wowing us on Fore Street - far more enthralling than lumbering traffic… Soaring stuff indeed! @4thEstateBooks @JMLockhart2 @_SwiftPress @r_heisman @eandtbooks @LevParikian @JonathanCape @MarkCocker2

C15th St Winefried’s holy well at Holywell, Flintshire. A truly wondrous place, the icy waters cured my hangover.
