Not only did I get my PLR statement today, but a friend happened to text me having spotted Weak Teeth in the lovely display cabinet at Leith Library alongside a bunch of great Scottish authors. Hurrah for libraries!

Gently lit bookshelves in a wood and glass cabinet, with books facing outwards. Including weak teeth, train spotting and gear no evil
