I sometimes think a robot would be better at identifying the traffic lights than I am. Hang on, maybe that’s the point…

Wow Richard, what a story. I really wasn’t expecting that ending. It’s funny when you meet people who just have this sort of energy about them, who you know in your bones are remarkable. Lovely bit of real life at a deep emotional level, beautifully told
