He’s getting quite heavily into mindfulness these days. It’s not that I have a problem with it. I just wish he would stop banging on about it all the time.

While researching my novel 1983, which is based on the Nottinghamshire mining village where I grew up, I had a weird memory of a man who used to take his cow for a walk around the village, like it was a dog.

"Have I made that up?" I wondered.

So I checked my mum and dad's old photos.

I hadn't.

POND WATER (a text from my mum, received by me today, that I have turned into a poem)
Bridget was round my neck
All night
I thought
It was affection
But I see from the weather
That she was just
Sucking the warmth from me
She smelled
Just like pond water
We have the plumber
Coming
To fit a new shower

My mum has had a few “Oh, mum” moments but I think arguably the biggest was when I wrote about Taylor Swift's Folklore album on my website and she read it then told me, “I bet that singer will be ever so pleased with all the extra sales she got because of your write-up.”
