This funny collection of stories which are true were put together by myself, I wanted to share them with others as they are worth reading. You will laugh and maybe cry but most of all you will enjoy the book.
This book is a humorous, funny, sad and a light hearted look in to one manâs life, mine Richard Head every memory in here is true, ish. I have changed the names and places to protect the innocent and myself hopefully, most of what your about to read is from my life. There are some incidents Iâve heard from friends, but Iâm not telling which. Okay the Typhoon part isnât true or Two Tree Island, and a few bits more but itâs a story right?
Richard Head better known to everyone as Dickhead, I had been searching for something to boost my boring life. I wanted something to give me a new outlook, I needed a different challenge, but what? Then a job opportunity came along and I grabbed it with both hands, that was a life changing moment and probably not for the better.
Iâm just your normal run of the mill bloke, but ended up fighting for my life many times. I had survived a major air crash only to be stranded on a tiny island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Iâve had to fights sharks, depression, insanity, plus much more and I recall my most funny and sad memories but mostly funny. I was there for over 500 days, and this book tells of how and what I had to do until heâs rescued.
My next big challenge is to return home and face the family, knowing that Iâd been given up as dead a long time ago. The kids and grandchildren were easy, facing my wife Tina who was now engaged to a new man, would be another thing altogether. Read on and see how I fair, will it be success or failure?
