For twenty-five years Kevin Boniface has been writing succinct descriptions of events and incidents that have taken place whilst out and about on his postal round, his daily route taking him from the main sorting office to the streets and outlying neighbourhoods above the town. In these commentaries and records nothing seems to be typical—engaged and disconnected conversations, the observed and the overheard—the everyday activity of life on the move. Hosted on Acast.

It’s like taking Kevin by the hand and letting him take you on a fabulous journey into a fantastically surreal world which no work of fiction would dare tread. It’s amazing!

An eye for the small things
Kevin has a gift for capturing the ordinary with precision, humour and an eye for the small but significant. He has something of the lyricism of Simon Armitage and Alan Bennett, and yet his work is unique, and occupies a new space. This is a little gem of a podcast-thank you Kevin.

Kevin is our postman
Kevin paints a picture of every day life in that there Huddersfield. A donut of a town , nothing in the middle & the best bits round the edge .

‘A bit of dinner on his face…’
I’m a long time fan of Kevin’s. I’ve had the good fortune to see him perform live, but now he has a podcast, I no longer have to avoid eye contact and I can listen to him in my shed. Perfect.
