A modern soul song from the 90s, probably now a classic, it had tonnes of radio play once upon a time.

Currently at Gatwick airport and we're playing Spot the Passenger Going to the Isle of Man.

I was unaware of this latest from #PaulHoward but recd as a gift recently.
It's interesting & entertaining in many ways,& quite thought provoking. Sensitive subject matter but well treated.
From one of my favourite writers, they may yet adapt this for TV.
Worth a read.
