The Chronicle Chronicles - Volume One
Reporting the unacceptable practices of councils, politicians, football clubs and government development agencies – Tony leaves no bizarre stone unturned. Ever heard of councils spending £45m on art, or £130,000 on biscuits? What about the £2.4m Lottery handout for a bandstand, or the NHSNurse of theYear administering contraceptive jabs in McDonald’s?All of these events and many more have happened – and Tony’s the man who has documented them all. A hilarious satire on society and an inside look at ‘all the bonkers things that go in in the North East of England’, this book will appeal to local residents, as well as fans of Tony’s work on the radio and in the paper.

Tango 190
by P.C David Rathband On 1 July 2010, Raoul Moat was released from Durham Prison. Within forty-eight hours he had shot his ex-partner Samantha Stobbart and brutally murdered her new boyfriend, Chris Brown. In the early hours of 4 July Police Constable David Rathband was gunned down while sitting in his patrol car in East Denton, just outside Newcastle upon Tyne. PC Rathband was blinded for life and one of the biggest manhunts in police history began, culminating in Moat s death six days later in the small Northumberland town of Rothbury. For the fi rst time, this is PC David Rathband s story in his own words... The extraordinary events that followed PC Rathband s shooting, as police tracked Moat through towns and countryside, dominated the headlines and became one of the biggest and most controversial news stories of recent times. Often bordering on the ridiculous, it featured unexpected cameos from TV survival expert Ray Mears and former England footballer Paul Gascoigne. It ended with a stand-off between Moat and armed police on the banks of the River Coquet in Rothbury. In the middle of it all was PC David Rathband, a dignified presence throughout. Tango 190 is his personal account of the attack and the events surrounding it. It is also the story of his physical recuperation and the gradual and courageous rebuilding of his life, with the help of his family, in the wake of terrible injuries sustained in the line of duty. PC David Rathband s courage, fortitude and good humour in the light of his horrifying ordeal are extraordinary. This book tells David s own story, and it is truly a remarkable one.

Hornes Down Under - Part One
Let's turn the clock back to June 2008, when we undertook the biggest adventure of our lives and without a clue what we were doing. We are Tony (36), Natalie (34), Molly (8) and Sam (5), and if you are a burnt-out family, bitten by the credit crunch, bogged-down by nanny-state legislation, collapsing under the burden that your life is flying by, with your kids growing up fast, together with the aching realisation that your career has positively stalled, whilst knowing that you only have the duration of the British school holidays to play with, then this is the book for you. If you like wildlife, campervans, Australia, barbeques, arguments with airlines, theme parks, Steve Irwin, and families that just limp from one cock-up to another, then it's all here too. In short, one mad family drives a campervan across Australia?Disaster ensues. Let's be clear though, this is not a guide book. No way! We had one of those on our lap every day and we just looked at each other and shouted fraud! No-that's not what we are about. This is my travel story of a family trying to re-introduce themselves to each other after many stressful years, following a route along the coast of Australia from Darwin to Adelaide. Oh, and by the way, my wife is writing the same account but from her point of view. What could possibly go wrong?
