	This wee story has gone around the world, appearing in six languages, two newspapers and four magazines, was made as a short film, and has been read on 3 radio stations. It also won me 100 pounds in a ghost story competition when it was first written back in 1992. I'm inordinately proud of it.  |

			Those of you who read the story might also be interested in the on-set pictures from the short movie that was made from it...
