Dear Time Traveller

I think my time travel short story might be done... Shush! We don't want to disturb it. I'm going to let it stew for another day and have a final read before submitting.

On the subject of time travel, if a hole opened up in the sky above me right about now, I'd instruct it to hoover me back to 1974 so that I could buy 'Rowntrees Tiger Tots', I have a curious craving for them and they disappeared from stores in the late 1970s. Not magically disappeared at least I don't think they did... Ooh, I wonder if future-me went back and emptied the stores.

For the unintiated, Tiger Tots were like Dolly Mixtures (see picture above) mixed with Liquorice Allsorts without the coconut.

A note to the people of the future: (and no I don't mean 'you' next Sunday)

If you ever invent time travel and happen to stumble upon my little blog (I'm assuming it's archived in a Hall of Fame because in your world my books are more popular than JK Rowling's - I know, who's she???) could you please head back to 1974, get me some Tiger Tots, and drop them at my desk (you should have my address - there'll be a blue plaque on it) Friday 2nd July at 3:30 pm. Much appreciated
