The idea of a mysterious manuscript found in a bottle has teased us ever since Edgar Allan Poe sent his hero to a horrifying death, allowing him only time to finish his story and hurl a bottle (and his story) in the general direction of posterity...But what if the bottle is found in The River Thames -and the manuscript is in a foreign language? Two kids from Essex, Beth and Ethan, cared for, as you might expect, by a nasty aunt, have to overcome the aunt and her slimy husband, school kids who don't like them, a total lack of money and a sneering parrot to solve the mystery of who sent the bottle and why. Are they seeking some imprisoned Princess? Or is it really their missing Mum they long for? A knowledge of the railways of Bulgaria might help you find The Princess before they do. A small cash prize for the best solution has been considered and rejected. You're not in this for the money, are you? By the way, no parrots were harmed in the making of this story but only because we couldn't catch the so and so.

Life, Love, Death and Debauchery(not necessarily in that order)is a collection of playlets written and performed by Player Playwrights (a London group of professional and semi-professional actors and writers who convene at the North London Tavern, Kilburn for regular play readings).

We meet many soul mates during our time on Earth, mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, husbands, wives and lovers, but nothing prepares us for the meeting (or re-meeting) with our twin flame or twin soul. The latter pairing is extremely rare and defies description and labelling. There is always a deep and loving bond present, but because the two may not be on the same psychic page, the many separations that ensue cause us indescribable pain.To understand this and other soul connections we have to tune into the origins of these relationships, the seeds of which lie in previous lifetimes. These past connections have thrown up karmic lessons which have to be learned and worked through in this lifetime.This book deals with understanding the different types of soul connections we encounter, understanding the pain they can cause and how to move forward.
