An octogenarian who enjoyed wild adventures while working in Africa and America over 20 years has had his lockdown memoirs published.
Peter North, of Haslingden, Rossendale, Lancashire embarked on the new venture last March at the start of the pandemic - writing tirelessly every day. The result - The (Mis) Adventures Of Pete North, An Ordinary Working Lad - has now been published.
Peter, 80, says that during the writing of the book, he relived every episode in his head and heart, and it was like having therapy .
