This book is a collection of stories written in rhyming verse. They are snapshots of my life until aged forty two, when in 1997 I left Victoria for Queensland with my wife and daughter. Born and raised in the Western Victorian town of Coleraine, this account should offer something for everyone and in particular those who grew up in small country towns. You will find the makeup of my first book of stories, covers topics of all kinds. Some are based on actual events and experiences whilst others are pure fantasy.
