What connects a prisoner in Peterhead, in the North East of Scotland with a quarryman in North Wales?
How did Ron Egyptian get his nickname?
We know all about the Holy Grail, but what about the Knight’s other (and some may say even more difficult) quest?

Following the successful publication of his story-in-verse ‘A Fishy Tail’ in 2010, Ballad of the Rocks and other writings brings together a selection of his other writings in this collection ranging from the serious to the absurd. They are all designed with the spoken word in mind. Dave’s passion for improvising and experimenting with words shines through, whether telling the tales of the Ballad of the Rocks, the Other Quest, evoking memories of childhood or creating nonsense verse. For many years he has written, recorded and performed music for theatre, film and live events. He sculpts and creates from slate and stone, working from his workshop alongside other artists at Parc Glynllifon in North Wales. (Artistiaid yr Iard-iard.co.uk). As well as all these activities, Dave uses his creativity to design, develop and deliver creative active training courses and events for all ages.

For Cat lovers everywhere, a collection of poems and short stories by Cumbrian poet Jackie Huck, capturing the many feline characters that have crossed Jackie’s path throughout her life.

…Some came as small bundles of whiskers and fur
and slept in my arms with a twitch and a purr,
others arrived bedraggled and thin
from a long weary road and just wandered in…

Excerpt From ‘So Many Cats’

Beautifully illustrated by painter Pauline Henderson. Jackie will be performing her poetry throughout the year across Cumbria and North Lancashire – look out for our events and news
