    Yes.
    But my teeth grit for different reasons which I will explain in person at some point.

    Dobs Red gave me the griff when, out of 42998 other radges and rapscallions, he somehow had the seat in front of me at the 2014 League Cup final.

    I think the words ‘Tory’ and ‘****’ may have featured.

    Although not about the Dons, Harry Pearson’s The Far Corner (mid-90s) is a superb fitba book, based on his travels around NE England’s minor fitba.

    The follow-up, The Farther Corner, which seems to have been around for a year, is apparently just as good.

    Tax-evading capitalist dogs Amazon are knocking it out for 99p just now (Kindle edition), and we can collectively dismantle their particularly exploitative strain of capitalism from the inside by buying at that price. Er…maybe.

    Former director and Top Red Chris Gavin?s book is out now. It tells the history of the grounds in the city where the Dons and our ancestors played before Pittodrie became our ain midden. The chronicle of the development of Pittodrie from its original inception to the magnificence of its current state is spellbindingly interesting. It?s impeccably proof-read too, I am told.

    Get it here, and consider the other purchases on offer too.

    Well done to the AFC Heritage Trust for adding (almost literally) further grouting to the backstory of the universe?s finest club.

    Drop by the AFCHT?s revamped website too, to quell the Christmas party fecht about who scored in That Game Against Arbroath in 1979.

    Is it yourself that is behind the promotional night of the book at Central Library on Monday?

    I won't manage due to work, but hope you have a good night.
