Inhaltsangabe
Norman Dabell has been a successful journalist, broadcaster and author for nearly 40 years but this is the story of his life before a pen and ink.
Plum Jam and Pot Mess were two of Norman's favourite delicacies and they aptly sum him up. As a youngster he was often in a jam; when he served in the Royal Navy, he was nearly always in a mess.
This is an hilarious and nostalgic look from the ‘40s to the '70s through the eyes of a real-life Adrian Mole who became a Jonah.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
After a 12-year career in the Royal Navy, 18 months in the Foreign Office and six months selling semi-conductors, Norman Dabell finally achieved his dream of becoming a journalist and, eventually, an author. Following spells on weekly, then daily, newspapers he launched a freelance golf journalism and broadcasting career in 1989, during which he worked notably for BBC 'Five Live' and BBC Radio Ulster, the Observer, Daily Telegraph, all of Ireland's major newspapers and Reuters news agency. Norman has also written six successful books on golf, including an entertaining memoir of a calamitous life on tour called Natural Hazard.
Having hung up his laptop, he now lives with wife Sharon, also an author, peacefully (but always wary of fate) in the Highlands of Scotland.
