When Guy mentioned he admired Alan Bennett's work at the "Audience with Guy Garvey" I decided to check out some of his monologues. I'd read some stuff years ago but I thought I'd revisit it.
The first story I read was "A chip in the sugar" , published in 1988
Halfway down the first page are the words "elbow room"
Imagine Bennett predicting Magical Trevor would start a forum more than 20 years before it happened.
A great northern writer and a bit of a modern day Nostradamus
Maybe the audience with Guy contains more hidden messages, I'm going to re-read mrs woman's review again.
