Thanks Rich ! - Your exploits over the years have opened my eyes and encouraged me to attempt things that were previously unimaginable. The adventures and experiences have influenced my life.

Backed, out of interest why didn't you go down the publisher route?

It is being being done via a publisher.

I wanted to launch via KS for the extra publicity.

I'm in, looking forward to reading it. Over £2500 in 2 hours, I think it's going to be a hit!

The books should be arriving next week.
If anyone wants to preorder a copy who didn’t kickstart, you can do so now.

It was good to hear that the print run has taken place - good news for both you and your readers.
Looking forward to reading it, with a pint of beer at hand, and dreaming of my next (relatively pathetic) trip
