A quick word of thanks to Alex Judd for helping me out with promoting the exhibition, and a massive massive thanks to Kirstin Eggers for taking care of bookbinding for me - you're an absolute diamond!


Interesting little bit of trivia: the term 'Muggleton' was coined by Charles Dickens to describe any place completely devoid of distinguishing features; an 'everytown' if you will.
And after which town did he base this phrase? Maidstone, Kent - the town I've been studying in for the last three years! Oh Maidstone, even 150 years ago you were famously bland.

On that note, here are some photos of 'The Ghost of Dickens Past' wandering around modern-day Maidstone.

Been plugging the show all week; Southsea should now be awash with posters and flyers.
I've also been in contact with the Portsmouth News and they may possibly be sending 
a photographer down to cover the opening night. Fingers crossed...
