Yellowcake Conspiracy now available as epub e-book
It's not long since I recommended the Sony Reader for expats or travellers. I still rely on it myself for 95% of the things I read. I've just loaded onto it the two sequels to King Solomon's Mines (I hadn't realised until today that there WERE sequels to it!) - looking forward to reading them on the plane (travelling back to England overnight).
As of today one of my books 'The Yellowcake Conspiracy' is also available in the two main e-book formats, epub and pdf. You have a choice of two online stores, Waterstones or WHSmiths.
The Yellowcake Conspiracy from Waterstones
The Yellowcake Conspiracy from WHSmiths
Smiths is a bit cheaper and their site is easier to navigate as well.

Hacking Timbuktu Competition
There is now enough information in the Facebook group The Knights of Akonio Dolo for you to work out the precise location of the lost treasure.
A free copy of the book HACKING TIMBUKTU to the first ten people to get it right.
Happy Hunting!
(The small print: competition ends 31 August, three days before publication of HACKING TIMBUKTU - those who have read advance review copies of the book are not eligible, sorry!)

Ministry update
I got back to Ouaga today after an exhausting month in Djibo. It's been good though - I put together 48 radio programmes, to be broadcast every week until Charlie and I get back. The first of these was aired last Tuesday and it seemed to go down well.
Meanwhile work on the recording studio continues apace - latest photos here
There are a few things we still need for the studio: two air conditioners, four table microphone stands and thirty pounds a month for a night-guard. If you feel you'd like to contribute to one of those things, let me know.
I fly back to the UK next Tuesday evening. Charlie has already started moving into our rented cottage in Lavant, near Chichester. Can't wait to be back.
