Stories of our Local Characters
Every small town has them. The local characters who help give the rural community its own special flavour.
Be they genuine heros, or part of a local legend or people whose kindness or eccentricities make them stand out from the local populace, each has a story, that has shaped the history of our small community.
These stories have been collected by me over the years.
