I've heard a few up in Lewis. Monster stories are quite popular. I'm
interested in stories about dolphins as they tie in with my line of work
and so help give the story a personal edge.
I always like trying to make the story as personal as possible and
always try to gove a little background as to where the story came from.
One of the reasons i particuarly like using Neil Gaimen stories is
because often, the tale is about a character who is themselves telling a
story.

Cheers 


Joe
