Duncan will be signing and dedicating copies of the book, and will be accompanied by the famous goat Enoch from the Morellos' Menageries.
The book, which has received rave reviews, is a gently hilarious collection of letters by the confused and endearing Morello family to the great and the good, with genuine and often amazing responses. Tony Blair, the Archbishop of York, Cliff Richard and Gordon Ramsay are amongst the numerous victims getting the unique Morello treatment.
