"...Our driver had simply turned the motor off to save fuel. That also necessitated taking the vehicle out of gear. We were now picking up speed, flying downhill out of gear with no motor running. How good were the brakes was the pertinent question now. We were hugely overloaded. Without the backup of a running motor and gearbox, we were effectively a tin can full of sardines, soap boxing down a mountainside." A young Afghan driver and nine passengers, pushed and wedged into a small family car without door handles, were chancing their luck on the Khyber Pass. Just one of the hair raising and often ridiculous situations the author found himself in during a journey of self-discovery and adventure. Some images etch themselves across the sub conscious mind forever.
Bob Wood lives in Auckland, New Zealand. Following retirement from a successful career with New Zealand Post, he now devotes most of his time to reading, writing, gardening and playing snooker. The collation of a series of short stories written for his children, led to the formation of this book.
