My book: Not Backpacking in the Philippines

thai malaysia addick

In 2022, I published a book called From Hashtag United to Wembley, the profits from which went to the fabulous Upbeats. It's still available on Amazon! Many Lifers were kind enough to purchase a copy. There were also some nice comments on the CL thread (which now seems to have disappeared).

I have just published my second book, Not Backpacking in the Philippines. It's written in a similar vein - a sort of (hopefully) humorous travelogue, observing life, meeting locals and fellow tourists, having a beer or two (ahem) - written after spending six weeks travelling my favourite country on the planet. Is there any football in this book? Well, strangely, there are more references to Charlton in this book rather than more football-based previous book. You can buy the book (and find a synopsis) on Amazon at this link. Once again, all profits from sales will go to charity - this time, it is in aid of the Philippine Children Charity.

And, by the way, I haven't forgotten the Upbeats. A third football-based book is on the way, which will be raising money for the Upbeats.

Thanks for any support.

Great- just ordered a copy. Will have time for reading soon. 

Really enjoyed Hashtag United. Very funny and an all round good read.
