Back to paperless writers Home Page


Welcome to the James Hay Page for stories written in the dialect of County Durham, England. These are original stories told by Mr Hay when he retired from working in coal mines many years ago. Mr Hay is now dead, but his stories are full of life. If you find the dialect hard to understand, don't worry: there's a glossary on every page. Gan on! Hev a try!
