Ep 74: Coming back to life

Listen Later

The Great War has well and truly ended and miraculously, we have five scarred survivors who look back on the Great War and look forward to a battle of a different kind to be fought on an almost circular battlefield. After gazing wistfully at the credits and debits of the War, they shift their attention to the Final which probably doesn’t feel like one. They are hoping for the best but fearing the worst. They are looking at battle formations and weather conditions, jinxes and reverse jinxes, experts and punters. They are eyeing the opposition with brows furrowed and eyes narrowed. They are holding their collective breaths for a battle that’s been a long time coming.
