I am semi-retired and the author of five books. The latest, A Search For Donald Cottee, is a parody of Don Quixote set in Benidorm on Spain’s Costa Blanca. Two African novels, A Fool´s Knot and Mission are set in Kenya. Both are set in Kitui and feature the same characters. Voyagers is a set of travel stories set in Vietnam, Brunei, Sri Lanka, Yugoslavia, England, Italy and Turkey. 50 Of The Best is Martin Offiah´s choice of the best rugby league action in recent years. Philip Spires co-authored the book. I was born in the UK and have lived in West Yorkshire, London, Kenya, Brunei and Abu Dhabi in the Emirates. I currently live in La Nucia, near Benidorm in Spain.
