Episode 22: Girls' Talk
Episode 22, late but weighing in at a very healthy 35 minutes, delivered this evening (following two early frustrated upload attempts) after two hours crawling up the slimy pipe that is Irish Broadband. Three conversations in three places that reveal character and back story but more importantly - peel further layers off the onion that is 'One Among the Sleepless'.
I just realised as I was mentally back in the pubs that the episode draws upon as inspiration that the Two Brewers doesn't have the garish walls and jazz musos - that was a pub around the corner from where I used to live in Brighton. It had been a typical old-geezer pub (and fair enough, wasn't doing too well financially) but it became a red-walled, jazz musician gallery about seven years ago. I can't remember the name of it, but the description fits so many places in England now that it could be any one of a million pubs. I mention this only in case you're a Two Brewers regular and find yourself wondering why the walls aren't red.
