The third book in the Ted &Paul adventures is due out at Christmas. The illustrator and cover artist is quite famous now and was a pupil of the author who was a teacher in Cwmcarn school. What I didn't realise is that the characters in the books are all based on former pupils. Two characters in the next book I know personally along with their parents. One was the Manager in the local club while the other I worked with in Llanwern at Tata Steel
