After chancing upon a copy of Felix Hoppy, Esq. M.C.'s 'The Strangers Guide Through Little Pedlington', the book's intrepid traveller forgoes the more exotic sights of Europe for the delights of an English Country Town, described by it's celebrated resident poet Jubb in the following glowing terms; "Hail, Pedlingtonia, Hail, thou favoured spot! What's good is found in thee; what's not, is not." Whilst there he meets many of the prominent townspeople, including: Rummins the antiquariuan and curator of the 'Rumminsian Museum', containing such wondrous artifacts as the 'two sword blades' - one of which bears a striking resemblance to a modern scythe, the other to a carving knife - amongst it's many exhibits. Another of Peddlington's illustrious residents is Felix Hoppy (author of the famous guide), who, alongside his literary credentials is also the town's Master of Ceremonies and renowned 'Dancing Master'. It is Hoppy who puts on the town's third 'positively last' performance by "The Unrivalled and Never to be Equalled SIGNOR RUMBELLO DEL SQUEAKI! Principal Pandea-tympanist to his Majesty the King of Naples" (a.k.a. Rob Squeaks from Winklemouth fair). There is, of course, also the famous Jubb - author of the inspirational words above - as well as a varied assemblage of the townsfolk. First published in 1836, but now available in this brand new modern edition, the book is a first class example of British humour and brings together an hilarious selection of characters, as recognisable today in any high street in a British country Town as they were then.
