The Adventures of Pigalo
Pigalo and Billikins stumble upon a lamp with a genie inside while exploring Pigalo’s garden. The two friends live in a quaint town among other cultured pigs, all well-dressed and dedicated to organizing the Four Season Balls: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Life is never dull for them, but they reluctantly accept the genie’s offer to grant them a wish, deciding on a simple picnic in a beautiful place. Suddenly, they, along with a picnic basket and deck chairs, are whisked away to a stunning lake in the middle of a forest.
But there’s a problem: they forgot to bring the lamp. The genie had disappeared, and now they’re stranded with no idea how to get home or where they even are.
Meanwhile, in the lake, a princess, cursed into the form of a fish by a jealous sorcerer perhaps a thousand years ago, awaits her rescue. And so begins the adventure of Pigalo and Billikins.

We're All Mongrels
I was truly amazed to discover the extent of my family tree and to handle the scope of it and just how many times, over the centuries, the same families keep cropping up. I am blessed that my record is as full as it is, and, of course, everybody else has a similar record; it just might not be as visible.

The Neverending Dance
The Neverending Dance is a true tale of what happened to me from summer 1967 till December 1968 in London, Paris and Rome, told in verse. Paris’s left bank, Roma Dolce Vita, and the Cannes Film Festival—almost everyone mentioned was well known in their own fields. When I wrote it, I felt as if I had lifted off the ground, almost flying with joy at the memory of it. It was another time, different from today’s time.

The Majesty of the Moon
Our need for alternative energy in the year 2062 means the Moon is being mined. The problem is that by mining for helium-3, it is somehow tilting the moon off its orbital trajectory.
Even more alarming is the fact there are nuclear weapons in silos facing downwards into the moon. The Orbiting Alternative Genesis Space Station and its crew and AIs are getting nervous as calamity unfolds on the Moon.
Balance is required; the Rogue corporation with mines and nuclear weapons needs to be kept in check. The Moon’s gravitational lock needs to be restored; cue the need for a cerebral superstar, if you will. Enter Kimber Kavanaugh, electrogravitics engineer and keen motorcycle enthusiast. A highly sought-after mind, with a personality more laid back than the Harley Davidson he rides. Is the Moon what it seems, glowing in all its majesty, or is it hiding a much darker secret?

If you own a JF Wilson, you have more than a special bicycle: you have a story of an exceptional man.
Jim Wilson, my father, was an inspiration and a mentor to future world-class bike riders such as Tommy Simpson, Ken Russell, Ron Coe and countless other young and upcoming riders from the 1950s through four decades into the 1990s, but that does not even scratch the surface.
Making use of his first two initials, Jim Wilson created and designed his famous cycle frame JF diamond logo in 1948.

Living to Die - Dying to Live
From the chimneys at age four, then onto the tanks as a boy soldier and the heights as a paratrooper, from multiple immigrations to prison walls—this is a story of extraordinary resilience spanning eight decades.
Now facing Parkinson’s disease, multiple dementias, strokes, and diabetes, the author draws upon seven decades of survival skills to navigate a healthcare system that has failed him. Behind locked ward doors, he encounters violence, abuse, and systemic failures that would break most people.
But this is not a story of defeat. It’s the account of someone who has mastered the art of escape and evasion—not just from physical dangers, but from systems designed to strip away dignity, wealth, and hope.
A raw, unflinching memoir that exposes the hidden failures of our care institutions while celebrating the unbreakable human spirit that refuses to surrender.
“When the system fails you, survival becomes an art form.”
