If you never had to get married an that I really think that me an Gal’d be pals for ever. That’s not to say that we never fought. Man we had some great fights so we did.

A story of boyhood friendship and irrepressible vitality told with the speed of trains and the understanding of the awkwardness, significance and fragility of that time. This is a day in the life of two boys as told by one of them ‘Derruck Danyul Riley’.

Dillon captures the essence of childhood and evokes memories of long summers with your best friend. He explores the themes of lost innocence, fear and death; writing with subtlety and empathy through the character of Derruck.
