My cousin Darren Smith makes the most wonderful wines - I draw his labels for a few bottles here and there - check him out here: @tfwath

The other week @_paul_gorman_ and I were delayed on the runway flying out to @convenanza_official. When the skipper announced the flight might about to be cancelled, Paul says, “Trust Absolute Unconditional”, completely unaware that in my bag I had a book to give to my editor @lee.brackstone10 by @drdavidbramwell, the inheritor and custodian of a medallion bearing that very phrase, received in a mystic revelation by one Ambrose Oddfellow decades earlier. David’s book hangs on the strange course his life took trying to discover the origin and meaning of the phrase. The phrase arrived with Paul via a man called Draco who had it tattooed on his arm after an Angel gave him it in a coma. Both cases had an air of the miraculous about them and our minds were blown, and the phrase became me & Paul’s temporary festival tat. I’m looking forward to getting to the bottom of all this with Dr David when I read at his wonderful Catalyst Club again next Wed 14th at the Lewes Arms, Lewes. TRUST ABSOLUTE UNCONDITIONAL !
