My books. First describing my time driving Bristol Lodekka, Double Decker buses for Top Deck Travel on the overland route. Second, a description of my career in the NSW police.

Stories by the author of his six overland trips as both driver and courier. Employed by Top Deck Travel in 1977 and after a year doing back to back seven week Europeans he was set loose on his first overland. A 3-week dash to Kathmandu stumbling into the start of the war in Afghanistan. The overlands continued as did his education in conducting them until finally embarking on the massive 20 week Sydney to London in 1980. This the longest of tours is told in more detail. Across Australia by decker through south-east Asia on trains, ferries, buses and planes and in hotels to Kathmandu. The Bristol Lodekka 'Casper' completes the journey on the final ten week leg to London after crossing three continents, passing through 21 countries and covering around 34, 000 kilometres.
