The Wantage ghost walks guy. Wantage Literary Festival volunteer, ditto Faringdon Folly, both splendid ways to spend some time locally.

Plus, I’m at the @WantageBookshop from 6-7pm on Dickensian Night to chat about the book and sign copies (another spoiler, they make great Christmas presents)!

Ever wondered which famous (and not so famous) highwaymen came from #Oxfordshire? Well, I have a book out on that very topic called Rogues of the Road full of the lives of highwaymen who were born here, worked here, went to University here or (spoiler alert) were executed here!

[Mike White @ShearedWitGuy]

My new book #RoguesoftheRoad is out today! Ever wondered about the highwaymen who haunted the roads of #Oxfordshire? Wonder no more… 😉 Available at all good local bookshops! Or come and hear me going on about it at the Wantage Literary Festival https://t.co/8ZnRZb0B2g

@DrBeauBeaumont @mrkhndy Just overcompensating for my lack of an Oxford education. 😂

[Mike White @ShearedWitGuy]

@DrBeauBeaumont @mrkhndy ‘To whom will the baton pass?’, surely?

[Mike White @ShearedWitGuy]

@NicolaCornick @WantageBookshop Thank you 😁

[Mike White @ShearedWitGuy]

Centre stage: I love @WantageBookshop!

[Nicola Cornick @NicolaCornick]

Our display of local books is looking great! Books and maps about our beautiful area are always so popular ⁦@WantageBookshop⁩ 🙂

[Mike White @ShearedWitGuy]

Finally caught one!

@jasperfforde Cunningly, there are Wantage stories in both!

[Mike White @ShearedWitGuy]

@jasperfforde Of course, if I’m properly self-promoting…

[Mike White @ShearedWitGuy]

@jasperfforde Lots of #weirdwantage stuff here https://t.co/4BU2BIMhhR and here https://t.co/KwrqGDlO25 both written by some local bloke…

[Mike White @ShearedWitGuy]

@DrBeauBeaumont Oh I don��t know; I think this one is…nicher…

[Mike White @ShearedWitGuy]

@DrBeauBeaumont Nice to start the day with a surprisingly feel-good story!

[Mike White @ShearedWitGuy]

@DrBeauBeaumont I fear I must disagree… #Rosie

@folklorepod Ditto, Wantage in #Oxfordshire

@JPG_1969 The Rector of Souldern, Geoffrey Shaw, received a visit from an old colleague John Naylor one night in 1706. This was particularly interesting as Naylor had died some years earlier… Full story in my book The Ox-Files! #oxfordshire #ghosts #oxfiles
