Release date is getting closer so yesterday I paid a visit to Media City in Salford to talk to Becky Want on BBC Radio Manchester about A Wager for the Widow.

I had a case of nerves before I went on air and I’m not sure the coffee helped but I enjoyed sitting in Costa beforehand and trying to work out if the man at the next table was famous.
This is the interview. I haven’t listened to it all as I never like hearing myself but I think it went well. I managed to remember the names of the characters (thanks to a crib sheet) and had a fun time. Becky was a great host.
My friend very kindly (and cleverly because I wouldn’t know where to begin) recorded the interview as an MP3 for me.

I love the area round the quays and for a change the weather was nice enough to go for a wander around. The views from the multi-storey are great, taking in most of Salford and outer Manchester.
