Cheers for that :). It is nice and easy reading. I particularly liked the "But the men turned away, because we’re not bloody fools in Leeds, are we?" bit ;).

Chris Nickson has incorporated the story of the skulls into his book "At the Dying of the Year" available at your usual outlets. You can see an extract if you search google books:

He's the writer of several other fictional historical mysteries set in 'real' locations in Leeds of the past. Might be an idea for a secretleeds-ite for Christmas?
