Lifelong mental health sufferer, massive breakdown left me suicidal, in an institution believing I was the king of Spain.
Documented are tales from emergency operation to avoid arm amputation after being hit twice by the same car, to a bizarre 25k drug deal involving armed Arabs, Beatles photographer, Bob Freeman and Led Zep frontman, Robert Plant in a Marrakech street market, to sexual encounters with one of Kid Creole's Coconuts after a Pet Shop Boys Hollywood party, to business dealings with the Kray Brothers, to reggae band, ASWAD breaking up a fight with 80s heart-throb, Rick Astley in the foyer of a Gibraltar hotel, to a plane load of statue funded Russian football hooligans helping me find true love in Spain, to saving the life of one of the rapper duo SALT & PEPPER at a London smash hit party, to starting and selling a successful business, fooling experts in the world of antiques, to having a gap decade, then another five years off, currently drumming in a Status Quo tribute band and a Jam tribute band.
