Further Outreach by Paul Livingston

Paul Livingston, a Sydney Bellringer, is known to many for his character Flacco.

An earlier news item (21 May 2021) linked to a radio interview in which he discussed ringing. Recently I spotted a one page article he wrote for The Big Issue.

You can see the scanned article here or read a text-only version here. It was first published in The Big Issue, edition 728, illustrated by Georgia Perry.

Paul Livingston is an accomplished writer, actor, comedian, visual artist and musician who has worked in film, television and stage for over 30 years.

Thanks to Paul and TBI for permission to reproduce this article.
