About Me

CLICK AND DRAG ACROSS THE BLANK BLACK BOX ABOVE FOR MOOD I'M IN...moodie, woodie shiz and dudie... Hi,I'm from Norfolk England, OK, OK...BUT LISTEN, This is my first story in the 'Jeans' series. 'Jeans Big Bang Theory', IT REALLY IS WORTH A READ, HONEST..... it is now available to purchase from:www.waterstones.com , www.amazon.co.uk , www.amazon.com www.whsmith.co.uk , www.authorsonline.co.ukIt Costs only £4.99 (Quote ISBN 0-7552-0278-3)Man,bargains were never meant to be this good....The story centres around a Fleet Street journalist, Mick Jeans, who is marked as the fall guy for an elaborate plot by self centred politicians , desperate to stem the flow of their incompetence.They have tried to deceive the country but their plan has come back to bite them and now... there panicking!..... Later, Mick formulates a plot to bring down the commons chamber of Westminster at the official opening of parliament by HM the Queen by blowing it up. He knows it's been tried before... ...only this time, it's going to be done properly........ The story is full to the brim of ruthlessness, devious cynisysm, humour, compassion, self guilt and revenge.But wait............ Theres a twist...............I have now finished the sequal to this book entitled, 'Jeans and the Christmas Thing' due to be out mid 2008. It should be published soon. ( TRUST ME) . SEE BLOG FOR CHAPTERS.1,2,3,4 and chapter 1 of Big Bang Theory.I'm a regular guy, married with two teenage kids. Both of them play in rock bands. Eldest in 'Obius' and youngest in 'These Vacant Eyes', both bands have My Space sites under these names if you wanted to take a look. My wife, Jill has recently been teaching special need youngsters and there are some lovely memories there...Me, well, I was in the UK Royal Navy for six and a bit years, was in Northern Ireland in the seventies and what a beutifull country that was , even in the troubles. If you ever get a chance to go to either the Giants Causeway or Magilligan Point off Derry or the town of Portrush.....don't hesitate .. there beutifull..I'm pretty well Mr Average , I guess, I get happy and upset just like everyone else, I laugh and I cry, if something hits me on the head, I tend to shrug my shoulders and try to remember to duck next time.. BUT I love the current rock music both modern day 'punk' and metal.......Don't like too much roaring though.......... Silverstein/Hawthorn Heights amount is cool, maybe new Trivium but not the 'In flames' amount.Used to play in a band in the UK in the 70's punk scene called 'Diamonds', much the same time as 'The Adverts', 'Souxie and the Banshees' and 'Ian Dury and the Blockheads'

My Interests

Motor racing, (Too old now though to do it)...Good high voltage rock an roll.

I'm a kid from the 70's punk era and can remember the likes of Souxie and the Banshees, the Adverts, Ian Dury and the Blockheads ... even shook Ian Dury's good hand.. god bless him. Love the new metal stuff from Wednesday 13,Silverstein,No Trigger plus the old firm.. Tony Iommi/Geezer Butler , Iron Maiden and Nazareth....

Movies:

Got to be a slushy wushy job, something you can take the wife to .. Nothing like a good cry.............................

Television:

Life on Mars was good on UK TV

Books:

A liitle gem of a book called 'Jeans Big Bang Theory' by Martin Hannan............. For avoidance of doubt, that's me...
