Amusing adventures from narrowboats, a Dutch Barge, a campervan and an E-bike throughout the UK and Europe.

Hello

from Jo

Like many people my age, I'm haunted by the spectre of how good things used to be. I get round this by pretending to be my own grandson. I jump in puddles, ride my bike and don't believe a word real life tells me. For more than half a  century I've carried my childhood in my rucksack. Apart from a few senior dribbles and the odd mechanical frailty, it seems to be working.

Of the 14 books I've written, some are autobiographical and some fiction. Running through them, a touch of humour.

My wife, Jan, and I have navigated life's highways by boat, bike and van. So far we've manged to outrun the grim reaper - just.

In varying degrees of comfort we continue to roam.

Below are my two current projects.
