A re-cap of the last twelve months (give or take a few weeks) covering all that went on in and around it as seen through my eyes. A year full of great independence and artistic expression, of travel backwards and forwards between France and England, of pain in purse and wallet for the British, three terrific book tours, blistering live poetry performances, the death of a Queen, Ukraine invaded by an ex-KGB thug, the Covid19 wind-down, an innovative new film based on an old film, new theatre productions, new friends made and old friends rediscovered and almost forty books read and recorded - a forest of tiny pin-pricks of events and happenings in the life of a relative nobody set against the infinitesimal black curtain of endless space. My life in 2022. I thank the fates for it.

Autorenporträt
Darlington for Culture Review This is the story of an ordinary boy from an ordinary working-class family in an ordinary northern town. If that sounds ordinary, it's not!Jethro Anson Nowsty was born and brought up in Darlington and we follow his life from his very earliest memories up to his approaching adulthood. This mixed-up kid was born in the early 1960s and the author describes everyday life as it was then - warts 'n' all. The music, food, transport, housing and entertainment of the 1960s and 1970s are all brought into clear focus in a series of short stories. Instead of a strictly chronological order, the author goes back and forth through the years writing in a way that draws the reader back in time to when a computer filled a whole room and dialling a phone number took longer than the call itself. All of this is interwoven with national and international news and the background to all of these stories is Darlington. All the landmark buildings, roads and parks, shops and schools are mentioned and described. It's a history of a special time in a special town, told with humour and affection through the eyes of a special 'mixed-up kid'.'
