  • The Ultimate Whitehall Farce Monday 16th June

    I have to go to London on Monday to argue my corner as to how the RCVS have hurriedly pushed through legislation in the 20.7 rule of the 2004 Court Procedures to prevent me ever practicing again as a veterinary surgeon. I need to lodge it at the Court of Appeal after the hearing but need to know just...

  • US Deportation

    Now the plan was to fly in my new little yellow cub from Texas on to the Falkland Islands with my latest sponsors, Alvin and Kandy of AMT Training Solutions, promoting our talks along the way. From Argentina I was to fly back up the Andes mountain range to the Rockies for Alaska. My floats were waiting...

He was not allowed access to M as M is in "segregation"? Our equivalent of solitary confinement, I suppose. On receiving...

  • Only One Step Up From Jail

    Good evening (Sunday pm) Still no positive news. I understand that M will be deported, probably within 10 working days if all is straightforward (can any of this be straightforward - none has been so far). I haven't spoken to M for 10 days and hope that he is OK. I suspect that that he's bearing...

  • An Englishman in Texas

    25 th April 2008 I had recently landed, only to take off again, from McGregor Airport, Waco, Texas, on a most gorgeous bright April day in order to find somewhere more hospitable for the night. The weather forecast for the day had indicated scattered transient but inclement weather from cumulonimbus...
