Have read & bought them all.

Usually releases one per year but haven't seen one for a while yet.

Best Australian writer Ever !!!!!

Found him boring with too much Alf Stewart slang. Kept waiting for something interesting or funny to happen. Never happened. Read about 3/4 of The Real Thing before putting it down.

And please no one reply with "fair suck of the source bottle".

Thanks, fixed it up. I'm thinking Syd as in "Sydney" where the stories always start.
