“Laughing” – Robert’s Bio CD

Laughing Through Life: Tales of a Yorkshireman

Self-narrated by author, J. Robert Whittle

Laughing Through Life: Tales of a Yorkshireman An autobiographical journey of the author’s fascinating life as told by J. Robert Whittle himself. Scores of fans have asked him to write his autobiography . . . but not wanting to relive some of his horrendous experiences while serving as the head of a First Response to Disaster Team in the British coal mines, he declined, so Joyce had him record it for you!

This Yorkshire England lad’s life was full even before he became a bestselling award-winning author. It’s also been full of laughter — his mother claimed he was laughing from the minute he was born! Now … hear about this intriguing senior’s life from his birth to becoming a young entrepreneur, professional cricketer and British mining engineer. In the mid-60s he moved to Australia, finally immigrating to Canada where he worked in Winnipeg and Baffin Island before at last settling in Victoria, BC in 1971 where he met his second wife, Joyce Sandilands. They continue to live in Joyce’s hometown of Victoria, BC.
