This is a true account of my childhood and my family seen through my eyes and told as I remember it, in my own words (not always complimentary.) Its about growing up in the North East of Scotland in a small, rural community; how we amused ourselves and used our imaginations to invent play and adventure. It also gives an insight into the hardships we faced and the challenges of keeping up with the progress through which my generation has had the privilege to live.

My life has taken many twists and turns over the years, presenting me with a variety of experiences – of work, social and family life. My memories are vivid and I am driven to record them, as I’ve been driven to succeed all my life. Common sense has always prevailed in all my work experiences, ranging through crofting, farming, coppersmithing, whisky-making, building, farming in a foreign country, and now writing. My personal circumstances have also undergone many changes; rearing two families and now reaping the benefits of extended families and grandchildren. Nor am I finished yet!
