The Making of an S.S. G.I.T.
What do you do if a tidal wave of debt threatened to engulf you and your loved one? Would you take a lifeline if you knew the risks that came with it? Would your conscience let you accept? The Making of an S.S. G.I.T is a novel set in a time when the government is losing seven billion pounds a year through copious fraudulent claims made on Social Security resources. As a dedicated member of the public you can pick up the phone, dial the designated number and report to the anonymous recipient at the end of the line what you suspect of your neighbours’ or friends’ shady activities. Freephone of course. But would you?This is the choice Ron must make. Ron comes from an unhappy, deprived back...
The Krays Win
It's London, 1969 and the Old Bailey sees the end of what was the longest and most expensive trial ever held, dubbed 'The trial of the century?: starring notorious Kray Twins, Ron and Reg. Unlike the real verdict, in this fictional story, the verdict is 'Not Guilty? and Ron and Reg, still in their prime and mid-30s, walk free. This book is an alternative outcome at what could have happened had this been the case. After years of relentless microscopic research in many fields down to their personalities, ambitions, likes, mannerisms and much more, this aims to do justice to their legacy had they not been incarcerated and had they continued as free men. Regrouping, settling scores, making up for lost time and overall settling sights high as they always did.
The Abbey Habit
2015 was a tumultuous year for all at The Abbey: we had to adapt our pits to the eventual loss of our away pit complex; manage when three members of the seven man squad were injured in our first meeting; enjoy watching "Rider of the Year" Greg Zengota emerge from a good 3rd heat leader into a real star, both on and off the track; welcome Darcy Ward to the team mid-season and then marvel at his amazing skills as he turned the season around for the Robins; cope with the dreadful news that emerged from Poland one Sunday afternoon that Darcy had been terribly injured in a track crash and would not ride again; manage the end of the season and playoff disappointment; resurrect the training track in the centre green and stage a junior championship round during the "Farewell" meeting; and then face up to the fact that delays would almost certainly mean that we would be racing at the old place for at least part of 2016. 330 pages, 1084 photographs and 104,000 words - this is the story of 2015 at Swindon Speedway.

My Brother Ron
America started a grand experiment in the 1960s: deinstitutionalization of the mentally ill. The consequences were very destructive: homelessness; a degradation of urban life; increases in violent crime rates; increasing death rates for the mentally ill. My Brother Ron tells the story of deinstitutionalization from two points of view: what happened to the author's older brother, part of the first generation of those who became mentally ill after deinstitutionalization, and a detailed history of how and why America went down this path. My Brother Ron examines the multiple strands that came together to create the perfect storm that was deinstitutionalization: a well-meaning concern about the poor conditions of many state mental hospitals; a giddy optimism by the psychiatric profession in the ability of new drugs to cure the mentally ill; a rigid ideological approach to due process that ignored that the beneficiaries would end up starving to death or dying of exposure.
