I don’t want to be part of anything where other human beings are called ‘scum’
… and I nearly was, on Saturday.
Instead, I went to a favourite Shrewsbury café for a lemonade, and had something of a rant into the Hello You recorder.
Then I sat on a bench in the Square in Shrewsbury and recorded some lovely, uplifting conversations with random people who happened to sit next to me.

‘One life, enjoy it while you’re here’

On the bench …
Every so often I pick a public bench somewhere in Shropshire, and sit there for a while, to hear what whoever sits next to me has to say. That becomes a ‘bench’ episode of Hello You the Shropshire podcast.
