Dead mackerel and a dead marriage (Rousse)
On the Sunday, we found dead mackerel strewn across the shoreline outside the hotel. I had hoped that we would spend the day together, but – as usual – TPR had other plans: to watch his friends play volleyball on … Continue reading

Dinner for the dead and alive (Rousse)
They were all there – family members dead and alive at my maternal grandmother’s house: my uncle who had emigrated to Australia in the 1970s was on the lawn in the back garden with his younger daughter, who was photographing … Continue reading
Badger captures squirrel (Rousse)
A badger sped past with a grey squirrel (most likely dead) in its mouth.
Dead father dines (Rousse)
My mother’s driving was truly terrible. Why was she in such a rush to reach the coast? The beautiful weather was forecast to hold, so there really was no hurry. When we stopped at the hotel for lunch, it all … Continue reading

Remembering the dead (Rousse)
L and TF were avoiding me because we had not acknowledged that the young woman killed in the terrorist attack was their daughter K’s best friend.

Jimmy Savile back from the dead and on TV again (Rousse)
Jimmy Savile was back from the dead and on television again. We – unwittingly – were honoured guests in the studio because, Savile claimed, we had “beaten the system”. He menaced us in front of the camera by waving plastic … Continue reading
A bigamous bride-to-be (Rousse)
I was distraught when my husband TPR declared that he no longer loved me, and that I was to be ‘donated’ to a new fiancé – my ex brother-in-law NMcC. The pair of them tried to placate me with a … Continue reading
