News from Eccentric City’s Harry Palmer, which I hope you’ll forgive me for regurgitating in full:

The Eccentric City newspaper shortly holds it eccentric auction (23rd Sept, Anchor pub, Digbeth, Birmingham - 7.30pm onwards). With much anticipated joy and excitement, British luminary eccentric Mr John Ward www.johnwardinventor.co.uk will be in attendance. This is a unique and wonderful honour that The Eccentric City newspaper team wanted to let people know that something outside the norm of day to day culture continues to gather greatness! A truely eccentric occasion beckons! Please feel free to come along!

BiNS has info about what the auction consists of.

John Ward seems an affable chap – here he is on Pebble Mill at One (a while back) chatting about making creations from rubbish.  According to his website, the late Screaming Lord Sutch officially appointed him Minister of Inventions for the Monster Raving Loony Party.

    Thankyou Chris for putting this information out. I’m just about to have a look at the TV show you have mentioned. The Eccentric City newspaper will obviously be celebrating John Ward!

    Appreciate your support,

    Harry.
