81. : Brother can you spare a mouse?-Main Street

It was the depression. Newspapers littered the streets of Ottery St. The Fascist and the Marxist fought for people’s attentions, a free meal and full stomachs got you eager ears. The black cat was finding it hard to earn a mouthful.

No crumbs fall from poor tables.

The cat walked down the empty streets of the town. It couldn’t read the signs, that said, ‘shop closed’ all he knew was that were once and eager hand had scratched his ear and earned him a bowl of milk now no one lived.

Dark clouds rolled in, and it began to rain.
