The Backyard is a place for stories - as is a train, a hospital bed, a pub, a squat, a day trip to the seaside, a holiday - or even a bath tub. These tales, from close to home and other places, are offered to amuse, shock, surprise and entertain you. Some tell of hope, a better tomorrow, while others tell of the darker, sadder side of life.
