Here is something really bargainous, available for a short time only.
Don't forget to buy old Pigtin's book😁. Ideal as a Christmas presents for the young, and even the old should their sight not have failed.
A story of my early struggles against the Furher, domestic fowl, and parrots. To say nothing of the spiteful beatings inflicted by sadistic school-masters. Then being scarred for life by a crazy knife wielding surgeon and suffering the general cruel misfortunes bestowed on me by the hand of fate.
Fighting the seas off Dungeness point, with a twelve-foot marine-ply craft. Just a tiny Century 100 outboard between a huge box of mackerel, myself and my mate having an unscheduled appointment with Davy Jones.
I also touch on the cruelty of children and ducks.

The danger, fascination, and frustration of driving clapped-out pre-war cars and motorcycles is described in mind-numbing detail, along with the perils of the model aircraft constructor... but perhaps I have already told you too much.
The golden hours of childhood and youth followed, eventually, by an inevitable descent in to adulthood and responsibility.
I was so lucky to live most of my life in the second half of the 20th century.
Available from author, or Amazon. In both Kindle and book form.😁😁
I lied about it only being available for a short time😉
Sorry have not yet mastered the art of posting photos. Just imagine a green book with a row of cottages on the cover. _________________ Due to the onset of my mid eighties I'm no longer sprightly and rarely seen in my Austin special. I have written a book though. https://amzn.eu/d/7rwRRqL
