ADVENTUROUS leprechauns Norman and Maggie Magowan dropped in to a city centre bookstore with one of the bikes which took them 35,500 miles through the Americas.

The duo wrote two books about their adventure, Leprechauns in Latin America and Leprechauns in Alaska, and accompanied by one of their trusty BMW motorcycles, they visited Waterstone’s in st Albans to chat with customers and sign copies of their books on Saturday.

The BMW was parked in front of the bookshop and proved to be a huge crowd-puller. Bikers, children and those interested in travel and adventure stopped off to look at it and chat with Norman and Maggie, who live in Herts, about their journey.
