I wasn't that mad keen on The Secret of Crickley Hall. He's written some absolute BELTERS, though, like Moon, The Dark, The Fog, Once... and Others.

I'd definitely give these a go. I think we share similar tastes, so am reasonably confident in recommending them to you.

My "me-day" turned very swiftly into an "others-day" as they so often do. My estranged father telephoned to inform me he no longer lived in Greece and had, in fact, returned to Britain and was living in Swadlincote (of all places!), so I ended up tootling down there to see him and his wife (number 4) - a strange evening, to be sure. I think since he's turned 65 he's become aware of his own mortality and wants to make more of an effort with his sons, which is fine with me. We all make mistakes we wish we could rectify, and I can be one of his.
