The Books

Comeback

The first of a trilogy of the travels and exploits of your truly. The particular content of this dealt with my world trip of 1986 which remains to this day one of the highlights of my life. Though I've never claimed to be a writer of novels (which is probably why they’ve all been long since discontinued) I think it’s still worth a read if only for the introduction.

The Other Side Of Kwai

Part two which covers my trip to Thailand and my antics therein. Following a three day stop-over in 1986 I always vowed to go back to see it proper. To this day it's the only holiday I've ever had in the country though I did end up there after escaping from an aborted trip to Viet-Nam. Now that's a country I should have written a book about. As with Comeback, this also has an offbeat introduction.

South Across The Border

The escapades of your host for these pages in Brazil with the Great Train Robber Ronnie Biggs.

 I stayed as a house guest at his apartment in 1989, when along with Bob Starkey of the Australian band the Sky Hooks we got up to no good at all. But it really was great fun. Thanks for being a great host Ron.

Come the end of these memoirs I decided that writing three minute songs was a lot easier than writing three hundred page books. I've never even considered a novel since.
