Hi Luke, really enjoyed the No Glory evening in the Forum – John’s extract and your poems gave 2 very different approaches – both brill and thought provoking. Enjoyed your Essex poems, I used to be a social worker based at Clacton and knew Jaywick kids many years ago before it became so infamous. Also I liked your reference to Southend the day before WW! was declared. I happen to have a picture of my mother and grandmother with relatives from Southend on that beach the day before WW2 was declared. Thanks for making the Jaywick poem (can’t remember what it’s called) available on your website
