I had a strange dream last about Amanda which I may adapt into a flash fiction story in the future but for the sake of completeness thought I would share it now before I forget it.

I have no idea why John is in it but in the dream, he rings me to say “Amanda’s Mr Men book has been banned from Stockport Libraries”
“Why?” I answered.
“They put them in the kids section
