Reaching 60 is huge.I had to do something to mark my big birthday! I hit upon the original idea of travelling a mile in 60 different ways during my birthday year. Trying to think of 60 felt like a challenge in itself, not to mention that twelve months in the year meant I had to achieve an average of five per month! Some of them were easy enough and others not quite so easy, in fact quite challenging, but it gave me a real focus for the whole year. I had great fun and felt a tremendous sense of achievement as one by one I ticked them off.I had a wonderful year culminating in a great party for which I had been determined to lose weight. Did I succeed? I should have done as I had a whole year…….but did I????

John Daniels never knew, in his lifetime, his grandfather Frank Pine (who sketched this corner of Westminster Abbey) but John's research into his life has found that his achievements had also been painted into a corner by a further war. Since he died on the eve of the Bath Blitz, he was also something of an unknown warrior.This is a story of social security - in two senses: of establishing a role in society from poor beginnings, and of furthering the welfare of a community in the days before the Welfare State through friendly societies and local government.Frank Pine was a leading player in the Bath Hospital Box Scheme that rescued the Bath Royal United Hospital from debt. In playing a key role in these activities Frank Pine looked to his marital links with the Beckingsale family and was part of a close association with the Daniels family of Combe Down.He and his family (and the Daniels family) played their part amongst many other local residents in the political and social activities of Bath, particularly Combe Down, in the 1920s and 1930s.

Often contentious, but always illuminating, Ian Walton's poetry has won many prizes, including the prestigious 'Orbis International'. In Fit for Human Consumption his astute, sometimes humorous, comments on life and lives come together in warm, intimate and beautifully phrased poems. A book you will love to read - and read again. Ian Walton was born in Leicester in 1951. Expelled from the City of Leicester Boys' School at the age of 12 he continued his education at a local Secondary Modern. At 17 he joined the Merchant Navy and travelled extensively while working as a cook. The rest of his life has included - Editorship of several Leisure magazines, running his own business, and selling advertising. Ian has lived in many areas of Britain, from Devon to the highlands of Scotland, including a spell in London (with his wife and daughter) as a homeless family.

It's August 1959 and it's blackberry picking time.

How far do we go to keep a promise? A back street stabbing changes the lives of five young people forever and promises prove difficult to keep. Blackberry Promises is an evocative exploration of teenage sexuality set in an era which invented the teenager.

"I was having a dispute with my wife-she pulled my hair causing me to turn into a lamp standard!" This is but one of the many excuses used by motor accident claimants. Many more of his favourites and quirkiest have been chosen by the author and included in the chapter "We Arnott Amused". From humble and often homeless beginnings the author succeeded in building one of the country's largest car insurance businesses and this, his second book, reveals his inside account of the Lloyds of London scandals, his own failings and of those involved in his business life, including his MD Brooks Mileson who went on to achieve fame-and notoriety-as Chairman of Gretna FC during their fairy-tale adventure into Europe. Many people dream of being their own boss. This book may encourage them to go for it-or maybe forget it. It contains some vital lessons, advice and pitfalls for the would-be entrepreneur and some stark reminders that it is not for the fainthearted. A sort o' sequel to the author's sort o' autobiography Social, Domestic and Pleasure, this is a fascinating account of "A People Business". "A wealth of material"-The Literary Consultancy.

"Spice is the variety of life."-This is one of the book's many "Chrissarisms" and just about sums it up. The book brings together, in the words of The Literary Consultancy, "a wealth of material." Described as "a sort of autobiography", it is not just about a boy who, from humble beginnings, created one of the country's leading car insurance businesses. It is much, much more than that. In a series of mini biographies you will meet characters like Tramlines Taylor and some of the author's irresponsible drinking companions like Alan the Gallon and Patsy, an eclectic version of several of them. The author's confrontations with authority in "Gypsies" and "DA versus the FA & Others" are described in detail and his views on religion, democracy, political correctness, crime (especially paedophilia) and punishment are bound to raise a few eyebrows. The ups and downs of Lloyds of London, the 'We Arnott Insured' slogan and the people involved, including the Chairman of Gretna FC during their fairy tale journey into Europe, are featured in Volume II: Accidental Millionaire.

When twelve ageing musicians are devastated by their exclusion from a breakaway orchestra, TV film composer Frank Morrison sets out to repair the damage and give them a new sense of purpose, by forming a retro dance band. After a hesitant start, they are soon reproducing the wonderful romantic sounds of the 1930s and before long, dedication and soaring enthusiasm lead to a string of successful engagements. Meanwhile, Frank's personal life becomes increasingly complex with the involvement of the athletic and appealing Regional Produce Candidate and the enigmatic Sarah. His professional life is no less hectic: he is soon working flat out with an impossible workload and, in his exhausted state, he still has to prepare the band for the most demanding gig of all.

Done to death by deadlines and other peoples clocks, I took several decades to think about this book before I finally had the frame of mind to write it. I am confident that the end result is nearer now to whatever you my proponents have wanted and 'they' my protagonists have expected. In any event, even if I could I wouldn't have written it in any other way. Limberlost II is the second of a trilogy. That said, it is not a collection; it is but one single thought: of how an all-encompassing passion will endure through several lifetimes. This particular book is an essential amplification of the first book and the crucial beginning of what I'll write next time around.

Flying in the family space pod, armed with unique inventions such as the sucking and sorting hoover and the zapa-snapa, Flo visits Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Saturn and Jupiter, in search of original and delectable delights, such as hot ice cream and volcano-smoked pancakes, for her perfect pudding. Full of colourful planetary facts, wacky inventions, near disaster and a lot of laughter, Flo and Hugo's ingenuity is tested to the very last minute.

What happens when all heaven breaks loose? The idyllic setting of a university town on the Mid-Wales coast. New arrivals from various parts of Britain, exhilarated and apprehensive at the prospect of grappling with the unfamiliar, in learning, ideas - and life. Four boys, extrovert, loner, poetry lover, aspiring intellectual. A malapropistic landlady. Three girls, one worldly, one demurely innocent, one full of adolescent ardour. A lecturer and would-be writer romantically inclined towards his students. And ever-present in all its moods, watching the human drama unfold, inspirer and tempter, lovely and sinister, the sea. The situation is ripe for a series of adventures, by turns comic, traumatic, poignant and, for one of the characters, ultimately tragic.

Disorderly Fields is a memoir-based account of the author's experiences of seasonal work from 1980 to 1993 in the UK, Greece, Israel, Canada, USA, Australia and New Zealand. It is a gritty, funny, sad and absorbingly interesting record of the pleasures and vagaries of a life lived in camps throughout the world, picking fruit and vegetables where such work can be found-and it is often an exposé of the sometimes brutal, crude work and living conditions, recorded as it was observed. The account is void of political correctness because it had yet to be invented-and still doesn't really exist in seasonal circuits. Disorderly Fields is the second work in this genre. The first observations of a seasonal worker was published in 1990 under the same title. It was serialized in the travel journal The Overseas Jobs Express, whose editor also commissioned the author to co-write two relevant books. All in all, about 30,000 readers have read the first work. The author became an authority on seasonal work and has been interviewed on radio and interviewed for The Times, and invited on radio and television.

Two men meet in a pub, one a psychotherapist, the other, friend and confidante, a priest. The former, Frank Appleton, is fraught with the pains of unrequited love. The latter, Fr. Alec, is increasingly and disturbingly haunted by the activities of a serial rapist - an antagonist who bears a peculiar grudge against the Roman Catholic church. The story tells how each man is variously affected by the unfolding crimes and the powerful personality of their sinister perpetrator. This novel is unusual in that it eschews a straightforward narrative and evolves for the most part through the letters and dairy of the counselling protagonist. By adopting the perspective of 'the wounded healer' the author is able to give added immediacy to the impact of the criminal and to explore as he does so various themes: these include the viability of faith in the modern world, the potential for evil and madness when integrity becomes compromised, and the endeavour to maintain a sexual ethic in a secular environment. Of interest to all who have suffered love's troubles, this book will hold special appeal for those affected by the ambiguities of religion and who yet strive towards a spiritual goal.
