Some links for you:

• Bahiya Of The Bark Garment: – Not Selling any Alibis – My friend and Birmingham photographer Roy Peters (http://www.roypeters.co.uk), talks about re-meeting his friend from university Ed Mitchell. Ed was the ITV journalist whose journey into and then out of alcoholism has been fairly well documented. Roy is new to the Birmingham blogosphere but writing like this is most welcome.
