About
Mud Between Your Toes is a memoir about my life - a gay, white boy growing up during the 1970s Rhodesian Bush War. Despite this dark subject matter, this is a series of recordings that are, largely, light-hearted tales about family, independence, loss and identity. And a few hippos and leopards thrown in for good measure!
