Book Description
In part one, we left a lovely wee Jim and his entirely world possessions, on a dessert quayside on South Wales. It was a miserable dark nights, and the rain was coming down in torrents. In part two, we rejoin him and share the initial moment of misery. From then on, the wee lad takes us on his adventures across the world up until he meets the love of his life. We may think life is hard... think again - then think again for the sense of humour.

Book Description
The origin of the old Scottish expression "Heart was roasted" has long since been lost of the annals of time. However, let me assure everyone that we (and Wee) Scotts are not - and as far as I know - never have been cannibals. The famous Scotts actor Sir Billy Conolly is an expert in use of such permission. So those who wants to know more can ask him. The expression simply means that I was not, by any measurement, well-behave child. In fact, I was a positive horror. Having said that, I assure you that you will not find three sixes tattooed on my scalp. Although it has been suggested that I was the original model for the children's comic 'Dennis the Menace.'

The bright sunlight shone through Mark's green and white hooped curtains and filled his small room with hundreds of tiny green and white football shapes that always made him think of paradise because that's where his favourite football team played and where, one day, he hoped he'd be good enough to play for the Scottish champions and score the winning goal in The Champions League Final but not today because today was his school's sports day and that was something he wasn't looking forward to.
