This summer, pick up a book. Here are Mr Craggs’ top 6 from the last year. Check some of these out or choose your own! Don’t complain if you don’t like mine but I absolutely loved these! Each spoke to me in a different way. @MitchAlbom @henryfraser0 @PaulMerse @whitburnlit

@RealBobMortimer @louistheroux @GillianSlovo @steve_toltz @Doug_D_Stuart @whitburnlit Part 4 in an occasional series! ‘Not all readers are leaders, but all leaders are readers’ said Harry S Truman! This is what Mr Craggs has read recently. Why not get away from the screen and pick up a book?

@Jayturnercooke7 Great to hear things are working out so well for you at Halifax @Jayturnercooke7. Sounds like you’ve found a home and will kick on from here. Just heard you mentioned in the half-time report on the radio too so another good game. Well done, keep it up!! Mr Craggs
