I have been a keen observer of human behaviour over the years, recording many a thought on my Dictaphone. If I had the time I would be a stand up comic, so if you have the time, please use any of my material for your routine. The Bingas were created one night whilst waiting for a Chinese take-away and doodling on the menu. I have drawn hundreds of them over the years and I have selected my favourites for this book.

What's the Good News for today? is the first book in the Yahway Bible study guides. This book looks at the four Gospels. It is for Christians of all ages, whether they have found God for decades or searching for answers in today's fast and busy world. This guide will compliment your reading of the gospels and help you read them in a new and exciting way. Once you gave read the chapter of the gospel, read the accompanying commentary. These commentaries consist of highlights from that chapter, prayers, spiritual exercises and modern day parables based on those in the Gospels. This guide also asks questions directed to Jesus, questions I would like to have asked him over 2,000 years ago. The Word of God is as alive today as it was in the beginning....

The Virtual Mitchell Library has many old archive photos of Glasgow.The "C" numbers refer to an old archive image, for example when you search for C541, on the top right of the page, a photo of Glasgow Cathedral comes up.I have included some up to date photos taken at the same spot 100 or so years later to see how it has changed.

An in depth guide to Edinburgh's old town and Royal mile. With around 120 colour photos and full description, it is the ultimate guide for those visiting Edinburgh. The Old Town of Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It has preserved its medieval plan and many Reformation-era buildings. One end is closed by the castle and the main artery, the Royal Mile, actually made up of four distinct streets named Castlehill, the Lawnmarket, the High Street and the Canongate, leads away from it, down to the now-ruined Holyrood Abbey. Narrow closes (alleyways), often no more than a few feet wide, lead downhill on either side of the main spine in a herringbone pattern. Large squares mark the location of markets or surround major public buildings such as St Giles Cathedral and the supreme courts. Other notable places include the Scottish Parliament Building, the Palace of Holyroodhouse, the General Assembly Hall of the Church of Scotland, the Royal Museum of Scotland, Surgeons' Hall, the University of Edinburgh, and numerous underground streets and vaults, relics of previous phases of construction. The street layout, typical of the old quarters of many northern European cities, is made especially picturesque in Edinburgh, where the castle perches on top of a rocky crag, the remnants of an extinct volcano, and the main street runs down the crest of a ridge from it.

This is the second book in the Yahway series. It looks at the Acts of the Apostles, the Letters and Revelation. As you read the relevant chapter the book offers a prayer, summary of the passage, an updating of part of the passage for the 21st century, and in most cases a discussion point at the end.
