FULHAM'S ROAD TO WEMBLEY '75 reprint


It’s almost unbelievable that it’s 50 years since our FA Cup final!

To celebrate the occasion Ashwater has reprinted the official club publication which recorded our epic journey to the final in 1975. It was called FULHAM’S ROAD TO WEMBLEY. It was put together by our very own Ken Coton (yes, he’s still around…!) and used his pictures from all the cup matches – twelve games in all including the final.

Here’s a chance to grab a piece of history. The original 32-page booklet was priced at £1, but this excellent reprint has cost us slightly more than that!

However, we are happy to post you a copy for £12.50 – that’s book, post and packing for just £12.50.

This offer is for UK only. Please use the Buy Now button below.

P.S. Ken can’t wait another 50 years for a Cup final appearance – so

COME ON, FULHAM.

Thanks!

Amazon and Ashwater

Amazon have removed listings of all of our books, so we are now unable to sell using their site.

Please see details lower down the page.


Just a thought...

TThat which we call a rose, by any other name would smell as sweet (Shakespeare).

But, whatever you call it, it would still be a rose (Ashwater).


Our latest Fulham book (printed in England, of course!):

CRAVEN COTTAGE – 250 YEARS

Ken's Antique Road Show

Even our grumpy old Ken is getting to grips with today’s smartphones.

They are really amazing pieces of kit. Did you know that the processor in your phone is able to make billions of separate operations every second – yes billions!

A modern digital camera is similarly remarkable, and has no need to wind on the film! (Younger viewers may have to ask about that…)

The digital camera really came about when someone at Sony thought that it might be possible to put a floppy disk (you may have to check that out…) into a camera and then capture the image digitally. No film at all!

This is how that first camera was announced:

 

The floppy disk was 3½ inches (about 9cm) in size. The picture size was 640 x 480 pixels and the disk could store up to 40 jpegs.

So, sorry, removed from sale...



Amazon and Ashwater


It appears that Amazon's problem is their new demand for official tracking details for every book we post. Over many years we have posted thousands of books via Royal Mail without ever obtaining tracking information, and every single book has been successfully delivered. No customer has indicated any need for tracking information!
It appears that our successful selling operation is not suitable for Amazon, who have taken a significant fee for every book sold through them
.

We apologise to all who would have liked to use Amazon.

One other matter has caused us further grief. Until very recently we were able to stipulate that our books were to be sold only to the UK. But then Amazon changed their working and we were obliged to sell worldwide. Unfortunately the allowances they requested from buyers for us posting books abroad were derisory. For example, we recently had to post a book to France; the postage was over £13 but we received just over £4 to cover postage. That clearly was unsustainable.

Emails to Amazon about these matters have elicited what appear to be non-human replies that do not address our concerns.

Please come back to this Ashwater site from time to time to check latest news and current situation. There is even a threat that Grumpy Old Ken (remember him?) may be coming back!

Thank you from Martin and Ken.

How about this for the sentence:

In the exam answers, if Peter, where John had had ‘had’, had had ‘had had’, ‘had had’ had to be preferable.
