One of the highlights of Chas’ library in the Hub was the collection of the The Strand, filled with much inadvertent hilarity in the small ads…here’s a selection, I’ll be posting some more another time…

The diary of 1997 – enhanced by Chas
I came to London in 1997, and I had been living with Chas, oh maybe 2 years at that time, enjoying the time with the best landlord I’d had that was a good friend. As a leaving gift, (well I think it was a leaving gift) he presented me with a diary filled with moments of pure Chas enhanced joy, which I will attempt to scan in and upload for your pleasure.
This is pure genius.
Welcome, welcome. You’ve come looking for Chas Saunders, and you’ve found this page.
He’s just next door at the moment, meeting up with whichever God of the Day is trending on his final opus of Godchecker. The Man the dictionary can only call ‘Chaos Saunters’, had an earlier foray on to the internet, way back when the internet was just becoming popular with 21st century folk.
This is a starting page to start digitising letters, poems and general miskellanyhouse that Chas sent and gave me over the years….Pubology pages to be published soon, but scanning in some scathingly funny poetry is a complete and utter pleasure and deserves to be put up first.
