In this podcast I explore what was my best childhood Christmas ever. In 1984 I received a ZX Spectrum from father Christmas and my whole world changed forever. Some 40 years later, with those gaming days firmly behind me I've had the chance to go back and relive those days once again. But this time from the perspective of a world weary member of the human race. What has changed and what hasn't? What is the advantage for re-engaging in childhood play? And can I even play some of those old games?

This series of 5 short poems explores the theme of solitude and was inspired by periods of isolation at home while my family visited with relatives abroad. The narrator arrives back at the family home alone, a house that was once filled with love and the sounds of a young child is now empty and silent. Over the course of the next few days and weeks his imagination, sense of loss, and inability to deal with simple domesticities collide in a surreal dreamlike silliness that threatens to unhinge his humanity. To accompany these poems I asked the artist and documentary filmmaker Momentori Madrassi to make a series of arty films which were narrated by Klaus Vankerman (think Werner Herzog). A sparse improvised piano soundtrack was additionally provided by Bernardo Boniffe. Unfortunately Momentori never completed the fifth film, as he walked out of the project after a blazing argument with me when I suggested the final film should include a sequence where I as buried alive in a coffin full of baked beans!”…

In this podcast, I reflect on my encounter with the childhood hip disorder, Perthes, and recount some of the barbaric treatments myslef and my fellow sufferers had to put up with back in the 1970s. Ultimately, I learn that writing a funny silly peom about the whole sorry episode, in a northern accident, may not bring closure, but does help to place the illness in the context of a wider life of shite.…
As a result of funding cuts by Birmingham City Council, there is now a proposal to reduce the library services budget by up to 40%. This would mean that many beloved local libraries around Birmingham would need to close, staff levels would be reduced, transferring library services to other non-council owned locations and creating an unspecified number of “hub” libraries. This plan would be an unprecedented disaster for everyone that uses the vitally important services provided by our public libraries, which lie at the heart of our communities. A campaign called Birmingham Loves Libraries has been formed by members of the public in order to try and overturn this decision and get Birmingham City Council to realise just how important our local libraries are. Link with the campagn here https://www.birminghamloveslibraries.org/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/949227466905839/ https://twitter.com/BrumLibraries https://www.instagram.com/brumloveslibraries/…
A personal reflection and tribute to Brendan Higgins who died in January 2024. Big Bren was a writer who was well known around Birmingham for his unforgetable poetical outbursts at events over many many years. He also fronted the avant garde free jazz banf Big Bren's Combo, was a novelist, playwright, actor, facilitator and event organiser. In this podcast I reflect my friendship with Bren , his creative output and his legacy. Including poetry, music and more from the man himself. Further infomration about Brendan can be found @ Big Bren's Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/308653259223097/…

In this revised piece of writing from 2013 I explore the effect of one particular episode of Deep Space Nine called The Visitor, which had a profound effect on me at around the same time as my mother passed away.
Written in 2010 and expanded and revisted in 2023 this is a reflection on my own experience with TV and how I remember those days back in the 70s and 80s.
