Older readers may recall The Really Heavy Greatcoat by John Freeman and Lancaster-based artist Nick Miller ran on virtual-lancaster after long service in On The Beat and Off the Beat, two other alternative Lancaster publications, for many years.
If anyone ever offered to pay us to write it, it might still be running today!
