Storytelling is as old as the hills but it tends to get a bit overlooked these days. Yet storytelling is all around us - in pubs, in restaurants, in fact, anywhere people gather for relaxed conversation, you can hear a good yarn.
And it takes all kinds of stories to reflect the world we live in. Some are new, others can be traced back to another place and another age.
Frank Delaney has been in search of tales, wherever they are told.
