The Poetry Episode
September 07, 2018 00:00 - 19 minutes - 27.3 MBOkay everybody this is the Poetry episode, so no stories (as such) this week. However it is kind of autobiographical as I tell the stories behind each poem, all written by me over the last thirty years. Poems are written to be heard aloud, so listen to - but today we seem only to read them. So I hope you enjoy the experience. It's one for the grown ups this week. If you listen to by podcast, it's always free. But you can show your appreciation by treating me to a coffee and a bun! Ju...

June 18, 2018 00:00 - 30 minutes - 23.7 MBThis is a different type of episode this week - its a collection of short stories, some true and some fiction - but all of a ghostly theme.
