Overview

Sex, booze, politics, intrigue, betrayal, danger... now I've got your attention, I would like to tell you my story. This is the autobiographical story of how a man born to a relatively normal family from a modest background in the West Midlands managed to achieve national prominence through a series of often hilarious and always honestly recounted exploits and misadventures. Dealing with the reality of the issues behind the headlines, A Rhino Through the Looking Glass is a brutally honest story of the highs and lows of a life led with the motto that there are always possibilities. From depictions of life growing up in Wolverhampton in the 1970s to depictions and anecdotes about encounters with huge names in politics, sports and entertainment, this book is a unique journal of a life that has, at times, stretched the boundaries of credulity in its levels of drama. Featuring encounters with three different British Prime Ministers, World Champion sportsmen and international pop stars, as well as a very long working relationship with Nigel Farage, the book is packed with fascinating stories. ""Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast"". Through the Looking Glass, Lewis Carroll. ""The Rhino"" is a nickname given to me by the author's ex-wife.
