Have sat on Mary Shelleys tomb countless times. From days out shopping with mum in the early 70's, getting drunk as a young teenager in the early 80's, before heading to the town hall disco, then onto the 90s, homeless and depressed. I knew the guy who Billy talks about. He's no longer with us. It's nice to hear Billy was so touched by his meeting and I even remember watching the programme years later in the 2010's. I left Bournemouth in January 2020 for a new start in Western England, although I'll always be a Bournemouth lad. Strangely, St Peters Church and it's graveyard is one of the places I miss, along with the seashore on rough Autumn and Winter night's.

I'm made up that I've found this. Perfect to help me drift off with a smile on my face and forget the worries of the day :), thanks!
Thank you very much.
