Sinopsis

Council house life in the tough end of South East London is no joke.
Life in those days revolved around the betting shop, the working mans club, fights, mundane working life, boredom, alcohol and who ever you can take home and hopefully alleviate what can best be described as a crippling waste. Failing the 11+ in 1959 meant you were consigned to the scrap heap of life. The fact that I could put 2 and 2 together and signed my name meant that the delightful Sedgehill Secondary Modern had fulfilled it`s obligation regarding supplying me with an education, at fifteen years of age I was on the streets but something inside knew this life was not for me. Salvation came in a Chinese Take away when I was standing there somewhat inebriated a former apprentice colleague came in looking as fit as a butchers dog "God you look a mess" was his`s opening line. He invited me to a Council run sub aqua club which he has a heavy involvement with, I never looked back. It was made clear to me from the off that sub-aqua can be a dangerous sport when it goes wrong and if you are not prepared to take responsibility for yourself and your diving partner there`s the door. I took the responsibility onboard and partnered some very nice people and was given advice and direction. Denis O`Callaghan, Alan Bennett and the late Tom Shanly, I will always be eternally grateful.
To those that feel as I was LOST, believe me it`s out there, you just have to go and find it.

    The wonderful adventures of Marian after she meets the strange Mr. Jugg. "And who are you, Mr Jugg?" she inquired. "I'm the King of the Bumpies," he replied. When Marian was puzzled there came a little straight line, exactly in the middle, between her two eyebrows. "What are bumpies?" she said. "My hat!" he gasped. "Haven't you ever heard of bumpies?" Marian shook her head. "Oh dear, oh dear!" he sighed. "Have you ever heard of angels?" "Well, of course," said Marian. "Everybody's heard of angels." "Well then, bumpies," said Mr Jugg, "are baby angels. They're called bumpies till they've learned to fly." "I see," said Marian, "but why are they called bumpies?" "Because they bump," said Mr Jugg, "not knowing how." (Summary by Phil Chenevert )

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  Echo Encounter - Abduction of a Screenplay 
    By Manny Contreras 
    When the world’s greatest threats hide in plain sight, only one man can see the truth. 
    Blind since childhood but gifted with extraordinary echolocation, elite U.A.P. agent Ben Underhill is trained to hunt what humanity cannot detect—unseen entities responsible for global anomalies… and for the murder of his parents. When a covert mission beneath the Kremlin forces Ben to break protocol, he uncovers evidence of a new, impossible adversary operating in the shadows. 
    Hundreds of miles away, Air Force Squadron Leader Mustang faces the unimaginable: a massive aircraft that appears on radar but remains invisible to the eye—and impervious to every weapon she fires. And in a Richmond, Virginia research lab, brilliant scientists Charlie Abbott and Brian Westfield launch a revolutionary, unhackable global internet signal… moments before an unseen force tears through their building and steals everything. 
    Three events. One impossible pattern. 
    As governments scramble, the U.A.P. Agency races to connect the dots. For Ben, the truth is more personal—and more dangerous—than anyone realizes. The enemy he has spent his life preparing to face has finally stepped into the open… and if he fails, humanity’s future may be rewritten. 
    Fast-paced, cinematic, and relentlessly suspenseful, Echo Encounter blends sci-fi intrigue, military action, and emotional depth into a gripping tale of first contact—and the hidden war already underway.
