A story for Halloween, written in 2022 Inspired by a visit to Porthcawl in South wales, where they really have tarmacked over the beach - although I don't know whether they have a little local god keeping the town alive (apart from my friends Will &amp; Jo - who live there and *are* gods) The music is: 'Thinking Music' by Kevin MacLeod (<a href="https://filmmusic.io/song/4522-thinking-music" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://filmmusic.io/song/4522-thinking-music</a>) Effects from Freesound : Timbre, Julien Nicolas, NLM, Yarmonics kyles, nebulousflynn, 7778<a href="https://freesound.org/people/redskelington/bookmarks/category/166869/?page=1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://freesound.org/people/redskelington/bookmarks/category/166869/?page=1</a> <a target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href="https://open.acast.com/public/patreon/fanSubscribe/7443534">Get bonus content on Patreon</a> <hr> Hosted on Acast.

The Elf Service - Episode 1

Merry and magical stories that take Christmas seriously (or as seriously as it should be taken, which is both not at all and entirely too much). 24 episodes of a new Christmas story for adults read aloud every December - an audiobook advent calendar.There are already many different stories. There’s the unlikely steampunk Adventure Calendar of Mr Timothy Hope, the story of the little girl Lydia, her family and friends and the Apartment Store, the madcap murder mystery of The Deadvent Calendar,  the report of an harassed government wizard on An All Too Magical Christmas, the strange experiences of Mr Benedict Nail among The Ghosts of Christmas Presents.
