My Life My Music: Auto Biography Kindle Edition by norman jay


This book is about the life of Norman Jay, DJ on Reclaimed Radio and Epic Radio. 

Norman opens his heart to the reader in a very open and honest way. He tells us about a life full of ups and downs, twists and turns, of nearly making it and his near misses. He also gives a great insight into the music scene of the time.

I loved reading this book, and I was amazed by the people who he knew and worked with, Jet Harris and Bernard Manning being just two of many recognisable names.

Overall the book is well written and flows easily, if are interested in music this is definitely a book for you.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Available From Amazon on Kindle and in paperback

Review: Lifeboat Heroes: Outstanding Rnli Rescues from Three Centuries. Edward Wake-Walker

Lifeboat Heroes: Outstanding Rnli Rescues from Three Centuries. Edward Wake-Walker Lifeboat Heroes: Outstanding Rnli Rescues from Three Centuries. Edward Wake-Walker by Edward Wake-Walker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The book recalls the story of 8 of some of the 2000 plus men and women who have been awarded the bronze,silver or gold medals for bravery since the inception of the RNLI.

The 8 incidents are from 1827-2008 and are all recorded with excellent details of the vessels involved, the crews and the dangers the crews faced.

A very well written and researched book with first class pictures going back to the 1800s.

A must for anyone interested in the sea and bravery.
