My Book about my Adventures from 2010 to 2013 is now available to Buy at Chipamunka Publishing and soon to be on Amazon Kindle, like any Author, I don't know what people will think of my Book? So it is with joy and happiness that my First Book has come out and people can now read about my Adventures. I am looking forward to the 31st August 2014 as I am doing my last Swimming Event this Year at Crosby Marine Lake in Liverpool where I will be swimming 3.8km which is going to be good fun. I am very much into Steampunk at the moment and I have bought a Resin Steampunk Gun called the "The Big Daddy" and is very well made. Chipamunka Publishing has sent me my Second Book to proof read for September 2014 release date. All my drawings are in the second Book and they are quite detailed and full of Colour in the eBook Format. Lorna my friend who I swim with on a Sunday Morning at Queen Dock Liverpool has nominated me and another swim to do the Ice Bucket Challenge for Cancer Research, this challenge has gone Global and I will be joining Millions of other people that have took up this Challenge, I am doing the Ice Bucket Challenge on the 7th September 2014 with Helen joining me with a Bucket full of ice over our heads. I am steadily working on my Fictional Adventure Book and looking forward to College starting in September 2014. I have had a Great Summer of Swimming and I have had great Weather for my Open Water Swims and enjoyed seeing everyone. In October me and Mum are going to the Sandcastle Waterpark in Blackpool where I run around all day going on all the Waterslides. It has been a Great Summer and I very much enjoyed bathing in Mermaid Rock in the River Olwen.

24th August 2014
Me and my Friend Joe Coy arrived in Blackpool for 9am for the Blackpool Pier to Pier swim, which is a group of friends meet once a Year to swim in the Sea and then go to a Café after the swim and have a Breakfast. My Friend Nick White organised this swim and we all had a lot of fun doing this swim. before the swim started me a.nd Joe Coy had to walk from North Pier to the South Pier for the start of the Pier to Pier swim. We where mean't to have got on a Tram at North Pier and then get off at the south pier, but no trams came so we had to walk down Blackpool Promenade to the start of the swim. We arrived at the South Pier with 10 minutes to spare before the swim started at 10:30am. At 10:30am 8 of us made our way through the waves and into deeper water to start the swim. Once we were all past the swell of the waves we then started swimming towards the Central Pier and i swum at a good pace. I swum under the Central Pier and then i got caught up in a Rip current and found i wasn't swimming forward and i spent a good 5 or 10 minutes fighting to get out of the rip current. I finally got out of the rip current and then swum towards South Pier and then swum under the South Pier and to the finish Slipway just after the South Pier near the Beach Patrol Outpost. I really enjoyed this Blackpool swim and after the swim we went to the "Promenade Café" for Breakfast. In the "Promenade Café" they had about 30 Clocks on the Wall and wondered how long it took the Café staff to change the Clock times when the Clocks go forward or Backwards. After the nice Breakfast me and Joe Coy said our Goodbye's to the other swimmers and then we set off back to St Helens where Joe Lives, i had met up with Joe Coy at St Helens and we went to Blackpool in his Eco friendly Ford Focus.

My alarm went off in my Bedroom at 5am and i got up and had a wash in the Bathroom. I had got up earlier today as me and my friend Steve Knowles where going to do a Swimming Event at Salford Quays in Manchester. We got to swimming event at 7:30am and our swimming event started at 8am, the swim i was doing was a 10km swim which was 10 laps of Dock no.9 at Salford Quays. I swam at a good strong pace and had feed every two laps of the Dock. My feed was an Energy Gel and Sports energy Drink. I felt good all the way through my 10km swim and swum 10km in 4hours 14 minutes which i was made up with. My swimming this Summer season had been average speed and i have had a lot of fun swimming in Open Water this Summer Season and it has been a lot of Fun. The Temperature was 16 degrees which was quite warm and i enjoyed the last 4 laps of the swim. i got changed and warmed up with the Sun Rays, which was quite different at 8am when we started in the Rain. I watched my friend Steve Knowles who also enjoyed a good 10km swim and both got finishers medals and T-Shirts.
19th August 2014
I arrived at the Student Learning Centre at the Liverpool Community College for 4pm to enrol on the A-Level Art Course in the Evening and I applied for this course in April 2014 and was quite excited about enrolling for this Art Course. My Heart sank when I found out by the Art Tutors that the Course I wanted to enrol on was no longer running and I thought this was a bit mean that the College never told me this information as I had a applied in April and it was now August 2014. After going to the College I made my way down Bold Street and took a quick look in the Science Fiction Shop called "The Forbidden Planet" and looked the Graphic Comics. I want to become a Graphic illustrator and design Comics and Book Covers for People Books, I have spent April to July 2014 learning how to do Computer Art and was hoping to do an Evening Art Course at Liverpool College in September but it is not to be. I had my Tea at Burger King near Central Station and then got the Train back to Wallasey and then Home. In the evening I spent my time searching for an online Art Course and found that the London Art College ran a Graphic Illustrator online course which would suit my needs.
18th August 2014
Mum and Dad have taken me to the Welsh Mountain Zoo in Colwyn Bay, North Wales and I had an amazing Day looking at the different Animal they have at this Zoo. I saw a Tiger, Red Panda's, Monkeys, Snow Leopard, Sealions, Penguins, Lemurs, Merecats, and 10ft Aligator and 20ft Snake which looked scary. At 3pm I watched the Penguin Parade where the Penguins walk round a field and the Seagulls try and get the Penguins fish and there was a good old scrap between Penguins and Seagulls over the Fish. At the end of walking around the Zoo I bought Mum a Cuddly Toy Red Panda which my Mum was made up with. After visiting the Zoo we had Tea in a Little Chef Café just by my Mum and Dad Caravan and we all had a Mega size Breakfast as we where hungry from walking around the Zoo all Day. next to the Little Chef Café was a small gift shop where I bought a Campervan Hippie Mug and Dad got himself a novelty Pen that was a set of Pliers. Once we had the meal it was time to go back to the Caravan where later in the evening we watched Dog Soldiers a Horror film about Werewolves set in Scotland and at the beginning of the Film a couple get attacked by a Werewolf in there Tent, needless to say I spent all night in my Tent thinking I was going to be eaten by a Werewolf.
17th August 2014
I got to Llyn Padarn Lake in Llanberis, North Wales for 8am, I had come to Llyn Padarn Lake to do a 10km Swim which was to start at 9am. After safety briefing on Lake Shore we entered the water and the water was quite Warm for a good 6 Mile swim. there was over 200 swimmers in the Water and I decided to go at the back as I had a long way to swim and didn't wanted to get mixed up with the fast swimmers at the front where someone might kick me or punch me with there arms. I had a really good swim and completed my 10km swim 3 hours 49 minutes and I also got bitten all over my Lake/Marsh Flies and it was only later in the day that I started itching all over. I was having a Great Holiday I was ill the day before and now I had been bitten all over by insects. In the evening I sat in the Caravan and wrote new Idea's for Adventures in 2015 and I wrote about 30 new idea's for 2015. At Midnight me and Dad took a Lantern each and made our way to Mermaid Rock Pool and I went for a Midnight swim which was quite Magical as you could hear only the sound of water rushing past me and the sound of an Owl in the Tree.
15th August 2014
I was on my 2nd Day of my Holiday with Mum and Dad at there Caravan in North Wales, and we had come to trearddur bay on Anglesey so I could go snorkelling in the Bay. I took my Monofin with me which is like a Dolphin Tale and they are a lot of fun to use. I Snorkelled in between all the Rocks of the right side of Trearddur Bay and saw lots of small fish in Shoals and even saw two big fish which I was made up with. The water was very clear and I could see a good 15 feet to the Sea Floor. After Snorkelling in the Bay I got changed and treated Mum and Dad to Ice Cream from the Ice Cream Van that was near the Beach. At 3pm we set off back to the Caravan and then Mum was going to Bacon and Sausage Toasties and I decided to have a swim in Mermaid Rock. Mermaid Rock is a Deep Rock Pool on the River Olwen that flows through the Caravan Park, and I enjoy bathing in the Rock Pool that I named Mermaid Rock. I went bathing in Mermaid Rock and even saw a Rainbow trout swimming in the Water against the current of the River. The River was flowing quite fast and near Mermaid Rock is a small Waterfall and I had a nice five minute massage under the Waterfall. The Water very cold as it was straight from the Mountains and took a good 10 minutes to adjust to the Water Temperature. I enjoyed bathing in Mermaid Rock and then after bathing I went back to the Caravan and Mum had made Bacon and Sausage Toasties with Brown Sauce and the Desert was Chocolate Cake. During which time I had a couple Glasses of Wine and was trying a nice Californian white Wine. I went to Bed at 11pm and through the Night I was ill and made the journey to Caravan Toilets a fair few times during the Night. I had got Sun Stroke and eating and drinking to much had made me ill. I eventually got to sleep in Gilert Sleeping Pod at 2am in the Morning.
10th August 2014
I made Bacon Toasties this morning for me and my Brother Lee and then I realised that we had run out of HP Sauce and I had to settle for Red Sauce which is not quite the same. I am starting to enjoy looking at the Fish Section of our local Supermarket and eating Seabrook Canadian Ham Crisps. I have now got the Amazon Kindle Application for my Android Smartphone, Laptop and Apple Ipad, which I am made up with. I got my Monofin out of the Loft today and got it ready to go Snorkelling in trearddur bay, Anglesey, North Wales. I am going to have a lot of fun my week Holiday to North Wales and my Little Car has been Repaired which I am really Happy with. I am in my first Year of College this Year, and I have enjoyed doing the Courses and learning how to do Art, Computer Studies and Medical Terminology. In October I would like to go to Alton Towers and ride the New Roller Coaster called "The Smiler" which would be a lot of Fun. This evening I went on the Animal Clothing Brand Label and got myself 3 pair of socks that where in the summer sale as I love coloured Socks, I enjoy wearing odd socks. I was in the local Supermarker today and found the Pickle spread for sandwiches which I like. I am completely obsessed with Pickles and I have no idea why?. I am doing 4 more swimming events this Year and I have enjoyed the Summer Swimming in Open Water, my Depression is worse in the Winter months, I not like a Cyclist or a Runner, my Hobby is open water swimming so when October comes I have a SAD Lamp to simulate summer Sun Rays and it really works as I suffer from SAD Dissorder, but I also love Halloween which I enjoy carving a Pumpkin, on and also going to scare attractions. I am making my Wizard costume for 2015 and I like going to my local Fabric shop called Abakhan in Birkenhead and looking at all the accessories.

I Had to buy Socks and Boxer Shorts for my Holiday in North Wales which I am excited about. I went to the Liscard Shopping Centre, which is the local Shopping Centre or Mall. I not very good at choosing socks or Boxer Shorts and there is a lot of choice even when its comes to a pair socks. I bought 2 bundles of Socks and I was made up with this and I bought 6 pair of Boxer Shorts of various different Colours. late in the afternoon I went with Mum to Currys Electrical Store in Bromborough on the Wirral to collect a new Tumble Dryer for the Utility Room behind the back of Dad Workshop. When we got to Bromborough Retail park I went to look at a Clothes Shop and bought myself a T-shirt and a pair of Everlast Boxing Shorts which I decided to purchase for my holiday in North Wales. A lot of the Clothes I buy now are all Online or I go Cheshire oaks and know exactly which store I want and the size I want. I do enjoy going to the Christmas Market in Liverpool City Centre and looking at all the different stalls which is quite fun. I don't like big crowds or big shopping centres, so I tend to go to Cheshire oaks in the evening whens its quite and look at the shops I want at a faster pace.
2nd August 2014
My Morning started with a Continental Breakfast at the Holiday Inn at the Albert Dock Liverpool with my Friend Nick White from Blackpool. The Breakfast was very nice and I had Orange Juice and a Sausage on toast with Brown Sauce which I really enjoyed and had a nice cup of Coffee as well. After Breakfast we made our way to the pontoon Jetty for the Warrington Dolphins Swimming club 4 Mile Open Water swim in Liverpool Docks. The weather wasn't good for the swim as it was raining and I and everyone else was getting wet before we even got into the Dock Water to swim around the Dock. The Water temperature was warmer than a swimming Pool and was extremely warm. I had to borrow a pair of Goggles from Nick White as I had forgotten my goggles and they kept steaming up while I was swimming the 4 mile swim. I felt comfortable swimming the 4 mile today as I had completed the 10km swim last weekend at Salford Quays and so I was now fully adjusted to swimming long distance swims. After the Morning swim that I enjoyed doing the presentation was at the Blue Bar in the Albert Dock Complex and the was a big Buffet Spread laid on for all the swimmers which was really nice, and I got myself a plate full of sandwiches, chips, and chicken drumsticks and then sat down to eat my small feast. I went to the Bar and asked for a Cherry Coke Cola and the Bartender gave me a Coke with Ice and a couple of Cherries in the Glass which I thought was a lot of fun.
After the Buffet and Presentation I had a walk around Liverpool City Centre and looked in the Musical instrument shop called "Dawsons" and I looked at the Guitars and looked at the PRS SE 245 Guitars which I think are amazing Guitars. I am going to the Northern Guitar Show on 23rd November 2014 so I will look for Guitar while at the Show, I also like the Orange Amplefier called the Micro Terror and also Orange Small Speaker which I think is a lot of fun. After looking around the Music Shop I then got the train home.

My Brother Lee over the last Couple of weeks has got me hooked onto Cherry Coke Cola and J20 Apple and Mango Juice Drink which I really enjoy drinking. It was Raining today which was a Surprise as it has been very hot over the last couple of weeks and I welcomed a bit of rain and cooler weather climate. when I got home from work I got my clothes ready for my summer Holiday at Mum and Dad Caravan in North Wales in the middle of August 2014, and I looking forward to going the beach, but I will swim a wet suit on as there are lots stinging jellyfish in the Sea around North Wales and I have been stung before in North Wales by a Jellyfish and it was not a nice experience.

Me and Mum have gone to RHS Flower Show today and I would be carrying a lot of plants for Mum during the Day. We got into the RHS flower at Tatton Park for 10am and already the Summer Sun was bringing showers of Sun Rays. It was a Great Silly hat day and I had a Army Green Sun Hat on, which gave me a little bit of protection from the Sun Rays. We started the Flower Power Adventure in the RHS Flower Marque and the Flower Marque was very big, with lots of stalls selling flowers from all over the World. It took me and Mum a good Hour and a half to walk through the RHS Flower Marque, after going through the flower Marque we decided to go and have a cup of Tea at the Coffee Shop Tent and I got to sit down for 15 minutes. after the cup of tea we watched RHS Flower Carnival which made it way through the flower show. We looked at the RHS Show Gardens and then we had a picnic on the Grass and took in some of the Summer Sun. After Dinner Mum did more Plant Shopping and I ended up carrying quite a lot of carrier Bags with plants in and Wild Bird Seed and garden oiniments. By Three O' Clock in the afternoon both me and Mum where getting tired and dehydrated so we decided to go back to the Car and have a drink of coffee from flask that Mum had made and then we set off for Home. In the evening I had been Sun burnt from the 10km Swim the day before and Mum put some after Sun lotion on my Back and then i did revising for my Medical Terminology course which i am enjoying doing.
