Great interview conducted by @Being_Patient_ last night. Here's a taster. @PeterBe1130 manages to 'model' "Slow Puncture" & there is discussion on the book (& the new one) as well as the importance of maintaining #socialconnections in order to live well with #dementia.

Spotted at the museum in Woodbridge, Suffolk: a miniature cannon. Does this count!

That’s a really surprising statistic. I am pleased that my own book (“Slow Puncture, Living well with Dementia”, published in Welsh by @YLolfa) is in that percentage. I’m not sure how well the works of Shakespeare translate, but that would be my choice.
Only 2–3% of books published in the UK are translated. Yet, reading international voices can transform the way we see the world. Discover why translated literature belongs in your book club: What’s one translated book you’d recommend to every reader?

Being part of @AlzAuthors has been a fantastic experience for me & encouraged me to continue writing abt @PeterBe1130. It was wonderful to be part of your 10 year celebrations. Thanks for giving me airspace to plug our new book, “Patching the Puncture”, released in Feb 2026.
Peter Berry was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s at 50. Instead of letting it define him, he and his friend Deb Bunt became a dynamic duo—cycling buddies and co-authors! Together, they’re rewriting what life with dementia looks like.
