About Me.
Travellin' troubadour and teller of tall tales,
Jist a rag-gedy man,
From deep down in the deltas.
Writer of lyrical narratives.
Painter of Life's pictures.
Sometimes wearer of hats.
I've dug ditches, pumped petrol, worked in 'five'n'dimes',
Picked fruit, been a mailman, a hobo and a high flyer in my time.
Had serious open-heart surgery,
Eaten chicken cooked on an open volcanic blow-hole.
And that's only the first sixty-odd years so far!
"I never meant to be known as a Man of Mystery. My reticence was born out of a sense of shyness and insecurity. But you have to capitalise on circumstance, don't you?"
