Having a varied and colourful life, which as taken me into various sectors, including the military, goverment service and engineering jobs.
I have longed to write a book and decide while I was on leave from the offshore industry. I would commit myself to writing 3-4 hours a day. The best place I found to write was in my car, on my laptop. So I was seen in various locations throughout Leicester, UK, typing away, whatever the weather. (mostly winter).
Young Archie and the railway robbers, was a spin off from another book I was writing about Professor Archie Martin a deep sea explorer and treasure hunter.
Hope you enjoy the read. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Have fun.
