Walk the Pit Road

Set in a Scottish mining village in the early nineteen fifties where life was still much as it had been before the war. Where the miner's woman folk still used the back green wash houses and everyone knew their neighbours. Where life was often hard but friends plentiful, there came a day when things changed and the village was never quite the same again.'Lunch on Lowestoft Pier' is another of Ken's delightful collection of short stories. This time they are predominantly based in his home country England plus a few more from the Gold Coast just for variety. These stories, as always, are short and punchy, just the right length to read in your lunch break.In his fifth volume of short stories, Ken has something to offer everyone. New characters include nurses at work, secret service agents, school boys getting up to mischief and so on. Ken's ability to draw the reader into every day lives of regular people is most unique. You too can be immediately transported to a time and era that possibly no longer exists, so you can either reminisce, or choose your own adventure - in any event, your reading needs are more than catered for, with this smorgasbord of saga's. Whatever your choice, you will not be disappointed as the unexpected unfolds with every word, slowly revealing the conclusion like a mini Agatha Christie mystery.
