Short stories and extracts from books I have written. In hindsight I should have studied some Russian, actually in hindsight I should have never got out of bed. Nothing happened - I was stymied.

Short stories and extracts from books I have written. The String Mines - Excerpt From MacSchrödinger's Cat. Albert looked up to find himself in the presence of a large rotund man, who seemed to take up more presence than was socially acceptable. What are you doing muckling around with Time, in weather like this," the man said, in a rotund Irish accent. For an instant, Albert thought this made sense, then realized it didn't and in a glaring way. Ah-choo," sneezed Albert. He helped Albert up from the canal...

Short stories and extracts from books I have written. Biggles and the Tiger. Biggles crossed the great divide and flew into the unknown, or as was more commonly known - he broke into the Women's Auxiliary Air Force dorm with a bottle of Irish whisky and an inclination that couldn’t be scratched. He was cornered in an airing closet by major Daphne Bodice-Splitter, whose double-barrelled name was the stuff of legends. 8220;Isn’t this bomber command? 8220;The only briefs are on your head! 8220;It’s li...

Short stories and extracts from books I have written. Maxwell and the Demon. 8220;Have you heard of this new idea about Duals? 8221; his friend Tait asked him walking in the door without knocking. Tait was Maxwell’s best friend, a bespectacled balding fellow Scotsman, whose idea of a holiday was living in a coffee house in Glasgow reading the latest pamphlets on mathematics. 8220;Like an negative-rabbit? 8220;Not anti-rabbits,” Tait smirked back, “but dual-rabbits.”. 8220;William Rowan Hamilton doesnR...
