About the Author

George Simon Budge was born in Plymouth, Devon in 1947. He was educated at Efford Secondary Modern School. George by his own admission said "My schooldays were like going to a shop to buy bread, and coming out of the shop with an empty bag". George was not an academic pupil at school, but he did enjoy History and Geography. George was a creator and excelled in Woodwork and Metalwork, hence when George left school he worked as Architectural and Structural Engineer for five years. George then followed the path of his destiny, working as an HGV driver for most of his working life.
