Where it all started......



Thanks to the Honey Harfat Facebook page for posting this pen and ink sketch by RJ Allen.  It shows the back of Haverfordwest Grammar School as it was at about the time I left to go to college.   Very nostalgic -- even the fives court is shown........

This is where I learned to love language and the creative process -- under the guidance of a wonderful English teacher, Fred Nicholls, who sadly died a couple of years ago. I learned to know him well since our move to Newport -- a very erudite and intelligent man with a vast knowledge of all sorts of things, as well as having a wicked sense of humour.  He was always a great support to me in my writing career.
