Pen to Paper Episode Eight

In this my eighth episode, you’ll hear writings from my fellow scribblers, in particular the runners-up of Bridgend Writers Circle’s Saviker Shield. Runner-up  was Mike Hayes, his crime story taking second place. Entitled ‘I Didn’t Mean It To Happen’ – a story of the requisition of farmland at Slapton Sands during WWII and a young man’s sweet revenge. Full of interesting details with a bittersweet twist.
This is followed by my memoir entry ‘My First Days At School’  and then Gerry Ezard's very different 'My First Days at School', which earned a special mention. 
Finally, you'll hear my 'Stranger in the Night'. This took second place in the Poetry section of the Saviker, Ray Humphries thought this poem was ‘A difficult subject tackled boldly.’
