Had a full and friendly day today. I got up at 7 am. to watch the Chinese GP, Simon came over and we played some old sounds, Gene Clark, Revolver, Starless and Bible Black, MC5. During a Beefheart DJ'ing session my beautiful mate from Madeira,... more
Exit To Beach - Film Review
All I could do was pontificate at age fifty one...... What would I have been doing at the age of twenty as a second year University student living in a house with one's mates in a thriving seaside town in 2010? It didn't bare thinking about, now... more
Two World Wars And One World Cup
Woken by Simon phoning me from his holiday to relay a comedy incident. He and his wife had gone on a coach trip somewhere down there in the outbacks of Cornwall. During the journey they came across some lost German tourists. The coach driver of some... more
Why I Hate Parties
Parties.Why do I abhor parties? For me it feels like a waste of my time, like reading fiction. I feel a fool joining in with that scene, dishonest trying to pretend I'm having fun in that scene. I suppose mostly, I like sitting with a person quietly... more

Spanish, Irish, Scottish, London East End, Thames Delta roots mongrel, have been looking for something I was shown when I was five but have found the best way of finding is not to look. Having submitted work to The Brink for some years now under different pen names I have managed to whittle down the either or section to Gibson, Coke, Beef, Panties and Bukowski. It's made my life simpler.
Spent twenty years commuting to and from London, money excellent, do whatever you wanted to do lifestyle, perfect English cottage, three cars, office complex in the houes, Ex Pat living in Sweden, two children then back to London for the 90's. Recession, Addiction, Psychiatric Ward, Burnout, Breakdown, no possesions any more which is freedom, estranged family.
Started the rebuild in 1993, gave up the booze and discovered I was actually enjoying life. Although divorced spent more time with my children and started working with Homeless addicts and male sexual abuse victims.
I now write about those experiences and work sometimes as a lecturer for Sussex University educating Mental Health Nurses and GP's.
Musical collaborations are essential to my well being, working with Beachy Head Music Club and Paul Hawkins, gives me the bi polar diversity which feeds the need.
It was as it was now it is as it is.
