Shortly after I retired I was on holiday in Cyprus. One of many lazy days I decided to jot down a few notes about my life as a pig farmer.

Just for a laugh initially,testing my memory to see how much detail I could remember about work and my home life.

Memories soon started flooding back.

I thought to myself, this could be quite interesting and funny to a wide spectrum of people. So why not write it as an autobiography and maybe see about getting it published.

After many months of writing and proof reading, correcting and proof reading over and over. I finally had something that resembled a readable piece of work.

My youngest daughter sketched some brilliant cartoons that I incorporated in various parts of the books.

And the rest is history, as they say.

My story is in two parts, which comes in two reasonably short books. I decided to make it into two books as there seemed a definite ending and a new beginning after 11588 days.

Enjoy the read.

I am now attempting to write a work of fiction. It is proving to be quite difficult as I am sure a lot of new authors have found.

I will get it finished eventually, I am sure.
