Bryan Pringle in Martenseyde by NEIL MCKAY
' A man devoted his life to conceiving a son. And when he died everybody remembered him. And they never forgot him even when everybody'd died who knew him, because they'd passed it on to their sons about who he was - so it went on like that till the last one of them had his head kicked in against a boulder ... and a thousand names died. Now, every-things the opposite. Everybody stays alive nobody remembers anything.'
