Saigonsighs97 “Only the Lonely – Dum – Dumm – Dummm, Dummy Doo Waah! the Big ‘O’ 1960.

19 Nov

OR!

It’s the title of my just released new book that will take you to places you didn’t know existed. The Gilf Kebir, a plateau the size of Puerto Rico that rises nearly a thousand feet from the floor of the Sahara Desert. Eight Bells Station, a mysterious abandoned RAF station from the second World War whose pilots were guided in by a huge arrow built from half buried ‘Jerry’ cans in the desert sands. Sands that were littered with glass, the remains of a direct hit meteor strike thirty million years ago.

And then!

Zerzura! The mythical (or is it?) lost oasis and white city, guarded by black giants, inhabited by fair skinned people with straight swords and a sleeping King and Queen.

Think this is fiction? Check it out on Wikipedia.

And finally! One of a series of photos taken by a friend who has recently visited Kolkata. (That’s a re-badged Calcutta for all you old Colonials out there!)

I wish I hadn’t done that. I shouldn’t have really said that. And now she’s gone.

Gone away, gone for good. Good for her, not for me. What have I done?

It was nothing, nothing much, she just smiled at him, not even a touch.

“I want to buy some flowers.”

“Yes Sir. thank you very much.”

Only The Lonely’ – now available on Amazon Kindle two pounds in E-format, six pounds to hold it in your hand.

“Know the way I feel tonight! Dum Dumm Dummm Dummy Doo Waah!

Love and piece John
