Following a less than illustrious career as a naval pilot, I taught and lectured across all phases in education for 45 years, before starting the UK's only full-time meteorite dealership. Although now retired, I still lecture widely about meteoritics and the paranormal. I have been a student of the UFO phenomenon for nearly 60 years and of astronautics for over 50. Through the connections I've made from my meteorite and space memorabilia businesses, I have been fortunate enough to meet more than 30 astronauts, including seven of the twelve Moonwalkers and many of the more credible and better-known UFO witnesses.

My best seller! Featured on numerous TV and radio shows, this book was the result of many
encounters with Apollo, Gemini and Mercury astronauts, as well as numerous Russian Cosmonauts. It became obvious to me that
major contradictions exist in the accounts
of these space travellers, and that many of
them have experienced UFOs / UAPs during
their missions.

Uninvited Companions is an examination of the paranormal phenomena known as orbs: the strange spheres of light that frequently appear on video and still photographs or are even, at times, seen by the unaided eye. With a BSc in Biological Sciences and Astronomy and a lifetime as a teacher and lecturer, author I have reached some new and startling conclusions about these contentious objects! The book examines other, apparently unrelated paranormal happenings, and consider whether they might be linked in some way to the orb phenomenon.
For far longer than you might imagine, politicians, dictators and other ruling elites have fully understood this basic principle: if you control what people hear, see and read, you control what they believe! If, through control of education, you can also erode people’s analytical powers, and make them virtually uncritical, so much the better.In each chapter of this book, I examine some of the modern sacred cows of institutionalized belief and consider to what extent they are subverted to manipulate public opinion and attitudes – and why! I use examples from my own experiences where possible: at leastI can be certain these are true!
Are catastrophic impacts upon the Earth's surface the major driving-force of Evolution? Cuvier vs Darwin: do we need to revise our understanding of the Origin of Species? Are asteroids really a significant threat to life on Earth? Or is their role in extinction over-stated? Is mankind's nemesis lurking unsuspected far beyond the orbits of Neptune and Pluto? When can we expect another major extinction event and what can we do to prevent it?
Loch Ness and the strange phenomena associated with it have exerted a powerful hold over people's imaginations for many years. Like so many others, my interest was kindled by Mrs Constance Whyte's excellent book "More than a Legend", and since then has been maintained by newspaper articles, television programmes and numerous visits to the Loch. First written in 1972, the book was completely revised and updated in 2026
Born in the East End of London just after the end of WW2, I grew up in the leafy suburbs of Essex. A short career in the Navy was followed by 35 years as a teacher and 20 years as the UK's only full-time meteorite dealer - but I've packed so much more into my time on Earth: read about it all in this, my eighth book. Sometimes amusing, sometimes reflective, but hopefully, mostly entertaining, this book contains anecdotes from early school days, teenage years and then onto events during teaching, lecturing, rock music and
much, much more!
A collectors' pocket guide to meteorites: their classification, composition and history, accessible also to students of all ages wishing to know more about this fascinating discipline. It describes what meteorites tell us about the formation of the solar system and how they have contributed to our understanding of planetary structure.
‘Birds of the Yare Valley’ is a concise site-guide to one of the richest birdwatching regions of the United Kingdom. Profusely illustrated and with easy-to read access maps, this book tells you when and where to find over 250 of East Norfolk’s stunning bird species.
