This Second Edition is an enhanced collection of reflections, mainly in the format of the old music-hall style monologues: some critical, some personal, some whimsical, some comical and some in other words ending in –al. There has been some tidying up of the original monologues and a couple of corrections – thanks to those who pointed out the errors of my ways, much appreciated. In addition to the original offerings, this second edition adds another fifteen or so original monologues and showcases a number of favourites including: The Unforgettable Metabolic Experience, Rodney Braithwaite, The Gentleman’s Hair Removal Cream and a salutary tale of Self-defence. And instead of the original three sections, there are now eight, with the monologues interspersed with the odd Dad Joke and other bits and pieces intended to raise a smile (hopefully, they do). Some time ago the book Yorkshire Rising was published as a scenario where Yorkshire achieves a degree of independence from Whitehall and flourishes – as we should have done years ago. At the time of this publication, the book is being turned into a play with a narrator. In rearranging the monologues, one of the sections includes those from the play to save you having to buy the book or visit the theatre. To finish there’s ‘meet the author’ – in monologue format along with some verses that reflect personal learnings and experiences.
