  When the pain, shock and betrayal of a loved one left me reeling and unable to speak, I resorted to penning down my unfiltered thoughts in the moment. With conflicts running riot within me, I asked questions and searched desperately for answers but found none. I came face to face with how difficult it was to honour one's own boundaries. Time did its thing as I slowly journaled my way into finding my voice again. 
  A memoir of unfiltered thoughts in the moments of betrayal and hurt.

  A mid-level drug trafficker and self-proclaimed low-life with a big vocabulary comes to terms with his actions and his mental health. 
   
   
   
  Andrew Brobyn's relationship was in shambles before he took the terrible acid that sent him on an almost decade-long journey seeking redemption. His immediate plans following university were to liquidate his illicit assets, sell his client list, pack up shop, and retire to his parents' home in Toronto, while he figured out what to do with a bachelor's degree in philosophy and a quarter million in cash. As his drug use and bipolar disorder spiral, his situation gets stranger and stranger, taking him from his university campus to strip clubs, psych wards, and the slammer. 
   
   
   
  Equal parts hilarious and terrifying, Babble On is a psycho-philosophical memoir that tracks Brobyn as he navigates the consequences of his eccentric choices and struggles with profound ambivalence toward his own health and well-being.

But as he organised into Nations and Empires, he needed more with which to keep the whole machine spinning.  Society was growing and consuming more.  But many of the richer seams of fuel and minerals lay buried underground.  These riches needed exploiting, brought to the surface to be used and sold.

In this insightful and entertaining memoir, Neil shares his experiences and observations about working in local estate pubs during a time when they were the heart and soul of their respective communities.

Neil’s revelations are sure to surprise and shock readers, and may even cause them to question the value and quality of the food and drink they pay for in these establishments.
   
  But it’s not all doom and gloom. Neil takes readers on a trip down memory lane, revisiting the fun pubs of the 80s before they became bitter PLCs. Through Neil’s vivid storytelling, readers will laugh, cringe, and even taste the history of these once-beloved establishments.
   
  In the end, Neil offers his take on what happened to pubs and what they have become. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and evolution of pubs, and may just make you think twice about where you choose to spend your hard-earned wages.
