Synopsis

As certain as the changing of the seasons, as predictable as the thud of boots on bruised shins giving way to the hearty crack of willow against trouser, as sure as 'eggs is eggs' is ungrammatical, the arrival of STOVALD'S ALMANAC heralds the eagerly awaited halfway point of the playing season. As always, the new edition features the usual array of Mornington Crescent facts and figures, memoirs, historical records, profiles of the great players, recipes and, of course, the ever popular 'Corrections and Clarifications'. Edited by Graeme Garden in a meticulous yet lively manner, this minefield of Mornington Morsels and Crescentabilia is bound to delight none but the most ardent Crescentophile.

Author Bio
Doctor Graeme's Aberdonian roots are dyed a pleasing flesh colour. In 1968, while waiting in a queue for treatment at King's College Hospital, London, Graeme carelessly qualified as a doctor. Fame eluded him with The Goodies and the original idea for I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue was Graeme's, but he generously refuses to take all the blame.
