The Wrong Coloured Coat, a True Story
The Wrong Coloured Coat, a True Story
I sat on the train home very happy with both myself and my purchase. A lone trip out from North Wales to Manchester, to the semi-famous underground market where I parted with my hard-earned money, my wage packet from my father’s factory slightly bulging with overtime, but soon to be emptied in exchange for my return ticket, a small coffee and my new pride and joy.

REAL FEAR, WAYS TO COPE WITH THAT DIRTY FOUR-LETTER WORD.
FEAR
We know we don’t like it, we know we don’t want it, but on
some level, we know we need it. It is telling us something must
