His experiences showed him there was a real need for a guide book for party leaders, so he decided to write one.
“It strips it down to two to three tour routes,” he said. “It’s built around stories which other books don’t do. It’s a bit of a niche in the market.”
Copies of the book are available from Amazon for about £10.
