Rags Daniels was Born into a working class family, the second of four children, Salford 1944. Migrated South 1956. Wild and curious, he ran off to London where he met the majority of the characters he writes about. The swinging sixties and early seventies played a major roll in his insatiable thirst for adventure, and against a backdrop of mini-skirts, mod's, rockers and Muhammad Ali, bore witness to an era of crazy fads, culminating in Britain's first ever woman Prime Minister in 1979. And of whom Lord Acton said, 'Absolute power corrupts absolutely, ' and by the end of her era, Thatcher was case in point. And while the Nation paddled through rubbish, bodies unburied, strikes, power cuts, spiralling inflation, limited working weeks, abysmal production, etc, etc, the real money was going into the pockets of fraudulent corporate boards and City Yuppies. Worked in Stavanger, Norway on timber frame construction where he met John Millen a naval architect who designed Pearl Harbour after the war. Became a 'minder' for his mother-in-law both on and off his motor yacht in which he and his wife toured the world. Returned home, attended Brunel University and passed I.O.C.W.(GB)inc, exams. Worked for Borough Architects Dept. Resigned, got married, built own house while running several companies. Designed a cold roll forming mill in India and a tiger compound in Nepal for the World Wild Life Trust. Widowed, he now resides with his son, an A level English teacher, and Roxzan, his 12 year old adopted granddaughter.
