NFF maps my
journey from teenage to adult life navigating
the stormy waters of the 1980’s NHS system and

calls itself psychiatric care.    Portobello Book Festival 2023

Monkey Face
>
Childhood was a happy time for me in many ways.
There was certainly no lack of love or material
comfort - but there was also school. School, as
far as I was concerned, was like prison, and I
would have done pretty much anything to get out
of it.

After the Citadel >
Losing my parents has been a long and painful
experience, but those last years were precious
too. Our days were not all sadness and sorrow -
it was a time for reflection and love and humour
and - oh yes - whisky!

Gullane Games >
These stories are based on memories of my
childhood in Gullane on the East coast of
Scotland. They are set in the 1970’s and are
fictionalised accounts of my personal
experiences and friendships. The stories start
when I am about seven years old and end when I
am about fifteen. Black Panther 1 is a work of
pure imagination, my brother is not a vigilante
and did not kill Donald Neilson with a cricket
bat.

Nursing Times >
These short stories are based on my early adult
years training and working as a nurse in Fife,
Oxford and London. I would like to dedicate
these stories to my friends who stayed on in the
nursing profession - I take my cardboard hat off
to you (except you Tooje) and to the patients
who I consider myself very fortunate to have
worked with.

When You Are Old >
Funny things happen when you are old and like
most people I view later life with some
trepidation. One thing I'm sure of though - if I
am going to be eccentric I'm going to do it with
style - after all, I've been taught by the
masters.
