Dear Fencast friends,
Before we get onto the main business, please can you check that you’re still receiving emails from us (if you want to). If not, please can you add dennisofgruntyfen@hotmail.com to your ‘safe senders’ list. And if you’ve changed your email address since joining our mailing list, please can you let us know your updated address? We’ve been getting a few bounce-backs to our emails and we don’t want anybody to miss out.
If you’re not on our mailing list, please contact us on info@dennisofgruntyfen.co.uk and we’ll add you. We won’t bombard you with stuff; we’ll just startle you with an email a couple of times a year, that’s all.
Thank you.
Now…
Throw your hats in the air and shout ‘Hurray!’
My nervous sister Miss Edna and I are cock-a-hoop because we have reached our dozenth Fencast!
And not only do we bring you a free episode, but we’ve also released a new compilation – Archive Editions 17. Continuing our trawl through 1993’s episodes, we bring you five new old tracks from September and October of that year.

It’s another glorious collection of Dennis and Mr South at their best. First, Dennis gets out his John Bull Printing Set when he changes his career but the results aren’t quite what he expected. Then there’s going to be a visitor to Grunty Fen, and it’s got someone very anxious indeed but who’s coming, and why? In the third episode, Mr South finds Grunty Fen wetter than ever, but why is Dennis so cheerful about it? And then the BBC Current Affairs Directorate sticks its nose into things again, wanting to know why crime in Grunty Fen is so low. Finally, we find out whether Mr South is wet or dry, and what’s happening right under Dennis’s nose.
Be warned, Archives 17 contains a wide variety of things, such as a jar of pickled onions, a roll of lead, gargoyles, jittery vicars, feathery frocks, Erasmic, Spam pasties, a knowing look, shiny trousers, mollified flies, hymnals and hassocks, the Mullard, funeral cards, Oily Ollie flapping his doors, cheese straws, fuchsias and a butcher chasing a pig.
Please click here or go over to the Albums section of the shop to get your copy, either as a CD or download.

And finally, here’s your free episode for Easter. Enjoy it before, after or during your Easter bath, which funnily enough is the subject of the episode. Click here to start listening.
Happy Easter, everyone.
