About the Book

John Meadows shares his wide-ranging experiences as a mischievous art student, bemused psychiatric nurse, reluctant parachutist, harassed teacher, American counsellor and time-traveller. Follow his hilarious escapades with a human skeleton, nude model and a lion, and witness incidents of mistaken identity that create comic situations in a psychiatric ward. Touring America by Greyhound Bus he encounters interesting characters and uncovers some intriguing stories. Occasionally, he takes a detour and travels by time-machine to visit his future self as a teacher supervising school art tours. Each chapter has a different scenario and whimsical, observational humour is the common thread.

Excerpt from the Book:

“On the first day of term in January, I returned Myrtle to her stand in the studio. Jeff and I walked to college; I couldn’t risk another crowded bus with a skeleton under my arm. I bumped into the principal on the corridor, and he asked me if everything had been okay with the skeleton over the holidays.
“Oh, fine,” I answered cheerily, “She’s had a really good Christmas.”
With a dubious smile, he asked me if I had done much work. I assured him that I had. He nodded and, as he went off towards his office, I shouted, “Oh, by the way Mr. Gill,” and as he turned around I said, “I’ve counted every bone, especially the little fingers, so I don’t think you will be reading about any murder investigations.”
