Andrew Davis has been places and done things. Along with being a bank clerk and a milkman with a horse-drawn cart, his main positions have been in health, education and community services. His passion has been to walk life¿s journey with people who have been dealt the rough end of the pineapple. Andrew has met some interesting characters with amazing stories. Their lives have challenged and touched him with the way they have dealt with their struggles. There are eighteen stories in A Gossip of Derwent Narratives. Many of the people in these stories endure extraordinary pain and tragedy yet surprisingly invite humour to be part of their experience.
