Ian McMillan, the ‘Barnsley Poet’, playwright, journalist and broadcaster, was joined by musician and song writer Luke Carver Goss (from Sheffield) to give a full house at our Jubilee Hall a delightful evening of poetry, music and song, on Friday evening, 23 November. There was complete audience participation as Ian and Luke ran through their routine including composing a poem set to music about Norton in Hales which they called ‘Inhalation’. This included a visit to our village by Queen Victoria in 1897, which nobody knew about! It was a great evening all round.
