A Catalog Of Errors: true-life tales of truly epic catastrophe (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781500382674)

I was born in the back bedroom of an inner city council house in Salford, Lancashire in England, in the January of 1964. It was snowing and I believe I came into this world with the sounds of 'Wagon Train' coming from on TV set - which was probably more of an attraction for my family than my early arrival. My VERY early arrival. I was severely premature and weighed-in at around three and a half pounds. I was wrapped in an old blanket, placed in a bedside draw and to be honest, I wasn't expected to live. They underestimated me. I hit the big 50 this year so I guess that's one-nil for me. I grew-up that same house untill my late twenties when I decided it was time to flee the nest and discover what this great big world was all about? So I moved to Eccles - three miles down the road. I eventually ventured further afield to Stockport (almost 10 miles) and I now live in wonderfull St Ives in Cornwall with my fiance Eileen and our mad dog Dizzy and we love our life here. We built the Escape Pod (www.EscapePodz.com) and now, between odd jobs, I write, as well as keeping my finger in with several other inventions and web ventures. In my life I've been in the building trade, worked as an IT Technician at the University of Salford, invented a new type of children's headboard - that I successfully produced for Chelsea Football Club, Rangers FC and Harry Potter. TM. I'm currently compiling A CATALOG OF ERRORS II, which will be crowd sourced by the general public, so if you have a story of great error, get in touch and it may be included in the final book?: ) Michael.
