Edward Dodd's famous book about Brigg has been read north of the border and is familiar to a number of Scots.
Brigg Blog's post about the Oxfam shop's recent special local history book sale mentioned Ted's landmark 1974 publication - copies of which were circulated to households across our town.
Andrew 'Sass' Markham has now contacted us to say: "It reminded me of where a number of books went. You may remember (more likely not) that in 1982 I visited all of the Scottish Football League grounds in a season.
"As a thank you for some of the hospitality I received (ground-hopping, especially the way I did it, was seen as unusual then) I gave each of the 36 clubs a copy of Ted Dodd's book. I would imagine most were not kept ...but I often wonder."
Yes, Andrew, Brigg Blog does recall your 1982 marathon and also your trip around the world, which was serialised, as it progressed, in the Scunthorpe Telegraph, including the highspots and low points.
