Come help us celebrate the publication of 'HERO: David Bowie' A fascinating new biography by Lesley Ann-Jones TMRW night 7pm at Rye Books

In Hero: David Bowie, Jones turns her attention to Bowie in a candid exploration of the man behind the reinventions. The book will be a journey to discover the real David Jones; as well as the David Bowie who lived eternally in the spotlight.Covering his music, his lifestyle, the golden-year highs and the wilderness lows.


Jones is the author of a number of biographies including Freddie Mercury: The Definitive Biography and Ride a White Swan: The Lives and Death of Marc Bolan


As a long-time fan and associate of Bowie, Jones has brought meticulous research together with her personal insights and understanding to create an extensive and detailed portrait of a one of music?s greatest heroes.


Jones said: "I am thrilled to be writing this. I met David Bowie when I was a child, became a music writer thanks to him, and worked with him down the years. I used to joke that a call from David to write his biography was the Holy Grail of publishing. That is never going to happen now, of course. But I relish the opportunity to tell his story from a personal point of view.


This is a free event,

    • Dog licenses were abolished in 1987. Before Britain changed to decimal currency they cost 7 shillings and 6 pence which became 37p. They were scrapped as they were unenforceable and cost more to collect than they raised.
    • This was posted last Saturday by Jb. "No the collections were separate, although both funds transferred to his brother, Asif. You could pop in and speak to his brother if you wanted more details but I believe they plan to fund a well in Africa. Thanks if you donated, the brothers were very grateful and touched."
    • it would seem very likely that they are trying it on if it their area - ie not a responsibility of the freehold. The freehold would cover the building structure (walls, foundation, roof) - possibly freeholder would have responsibility for the front door - if so, does the freeholder have the windows? Usually grey area in a lease so you could look at past instances - who has paid for window replacement, front door to be painted etc?  
    • Thanks for these comments. Very helpful. The porch and hallway shows on their lease plan but we share the freehold together.
