My specialist subject, obviously. Firstly, I should like to apologise if this gets at all disjointed but I am drinking whisky while I wait for a sleeper to kick in. All this would be great were it not for the bastard who insists on jamming a red-hot spike into my left leg every thirty seconds. He is actually called spike, and he is my old nemesis. His visits have been sufficiently infrequent of late, that he managed to sneak up and get me good for daring to even entertain the notion that he might have gone away, or at least mellowed. Now he's proper pissed off, and I am chasing oblivion by whatever means I can find.
That's not the reason for this missive. No. The reason I am writing this is the blinding realisation that I haven't up to this point mentioned that I have a book being published in a couple of weeks. It's called Looking Up, and is being published by Virgin Books on the 3rd April, priced £7.99. Shamefully, you can simply click on the cover image up on the tool bar to order a copy, and get me some extra bread on the side.
It's just that the thought occurred to me.. If you came to this blog from cold, then there is very little to draw the reader into the more in-depth explanation of who I am and with it, perhaps an insight into why these entries are as down-right weird as they are at times.
Here's tae ye! as the say in the bottle's origin.
