Going to the match - Lowry

Whilst writing, I tend to draw on aspects of my childhood and drip feed them into my stories. My latest book is no exception. I still love L.S. Lowry’s art. A man who could paint the ordinary occurring within every day life yet make the world stop and look at the extraordinary scene, complete with its match stalk cats and dogs!

A canvas print of this painting, ‘Going to the match’ sits at my right shoulder as I type. A scene I’ve studied over many years and I still spot something new on occasion. I’m posting it because come Thursday, if you venture inside my latest book, you might wish to check a specific detail, once you reach the end of the 'Christmas Wishes' story. I wanted to provide the proof, for it to be ready and waiting for when you sought it.
