Jos reads 'The Highwayman' by Alfred Noyes (1906)
The wind was a torrent of darkness upon the gusty trees,
The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
The road was a ribbon of moonlight looping the purple moor,
And the highwayman came riding
Riding riding
The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn door.
In 2015, when he was 87, he reprised his 'Romeo and Juliet' speech from 70 years before.
