My stories

The books in the Window

The books in the window have caught my imagination since the first time I saw them. They're in the front window of a house I pass on the way to work, parallel to Brighton seafront.

Mushroom risotto

We'd never catered for vegetarians before. My usual method of cooking for guests is to throw a joint of beef or a chicken in the oven and add the spuds, veg and Yorkshire pud.

A night in the old well (200 words)

Tomorrow I turn 17, so tonight I have to sleep at the bottom of the old well, such is the tradition for boys in our village. Tomorrow I will wake up a man.

Mask

Mickey wasn't a criminal. Sure, he'd done a few bad things but who hasn't?

The importance of good signage

Heck, I deserved my promotion. 17 years I worked flat out every day, playing my part in the safe passage of millions of people travelling in and out of New York's Penn Station.
