This was written in collaboration with, and at the suggestion of, the lovely and very talented Lisa Rose of Lisa Rose Illustration and Ink Soup; a version with her wonderful illustrations can be found in Ink Soup 8: Ouroboros, available for purchase here.
The piece itself was inspired by stories my Dad told me about growing up around the gravel pits and canals of the western suburbs of Greater London during the 1950s, almost all of which are certainly not true.
