Jack
was a key figure in the book. I added him as the main character,
as he had a certain charisma about him. I went to his bingo hall
in Newcastle a few times and on my last visit I spent a whole week
with him. He was full of wisdom about life and during this time
became a friend. We stayed in contact but very sadly he passed away
last summer. The Ritz was Jack's last bingo hall. |
