motorpunk Posted December 15, 2022 Author Share Posted December 15, 2022 More FREE books posted out today. Another will go tomorrow. So pleased that folks are enjoying my writing. I’ve only got a few more editor copies left, then we get to the moth-eaten leftovers, so I’d suggest if you’d like to order a copy of SUPER and claim your free copy of “Nothing handles like a rental car”, then look sharp. First come first served and all that. Cheers! UltraWomble 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, if you’ve ordered a copy of “super” then DM me a copy of your order acknowledgement from Amazon and I’ll post a free book 👍🏻 auntiemaryscanary 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motorpunk Posted December 18, 2022 Author Share Posted December 18, 2022 Okidokie. Am now out of stock of FREE books but you can still buy them with actual money from Amazon, if you like that sort of thing. Happy Christmas UltraWomble 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Jetter Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 My copy of NHLARC arrived yesterday, thank you @motorpunk I see that there are no page numbers in SUPER - is that your choice or an Amazon limitation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macscrooge Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 I’ve so far read several chapters of NHLARC - excellent stuff. I know it’s funny ‘cos management keeps telling me off for loud guffawing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiC Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 You've got (a kind of) competition! Amazon recommended me it along with your other SUPER books I haven't bought. Published on 2019 by The History Press Edit: sadly maybe not any future competition if this was the author - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicholas_Evans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazon recommended me it along with your other SUPER books I haven't bought. Ta. There have been a couple of books on a similar theme, but those mostly cover a very small selection of locations and they're quite old, focussing more on the past than the dilapidated present. Only got this pic to hand (cover art mock up for the Welsh edition of the book), but I'm more into grotty treasures like this (below) myself. The little hut and pumps went last year, sadly. Making my books was a race against the clock to photograph them all as places get developed; SiC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motorpunk Posted September 19, 2023 Author Share Posted September 19, 2023 For those viewing on a phone, here's a link to the webpage which explains all the regional editions of the book - https://www.motorpunk.co.uk/articles/super-old-odd-interesting-obscure-abandoned-filling-stations/ I was also pondering sharing my (considerable) research, I have a Googlemap with c.800 locations geotagged, each with an old filling station site around the UK. I didn't make it public as there's a risk bearded explorer twats will turn up, but on the other hand these are important historical locations that should not be lost. I dunno...
