Memoir, anecdote and meaningful other: Shreds 1-10
First Dates: An honest account of my adolescent 'relationships' with the models in mail-order catalogues.
Lamb 197: A lost Cumbrian lamb re-unites with its mother, leading to realisations about the relationship I have with my own.
Listen to the Man: Myself and a fellow stoner board a pedalo and take to the sea. Ignoring the advice of the man hiring them out, we head past the buoys and get taken out by the tide.
The Fabricheads: Dark imaginations of a town (in Wales) where trepanning is practiced, leading to improved intellectual function and enlightenment for its residents.
Falling Down, Granola and the Water Bowl: After a hard day's work, I am confronted with mounting bills and suffer a cartoon mini-breakdown.
He Played Eight: Mortifying infant embarrassment when forced to sing in class.
Spit in Me Hat: Lunchtime observations: as I sit on a mound of rubble on an abandoned traveller's site, I question negative perceptions of them.
Pretty Things: In a refuge I stayed in as a child, I sit and watch three women tattoo each other's hands using a biro and heated compass point. Another woman enters, and I become transfixed by her.
The Queue: While waiting to cash a cheque, I imagine those in the queue as a gang committing a bank job.
Dear Mr Hales: A sarcastic letter to the BBC regarding non-payment of my TV license.
