• MY FAMILY AND SOME OF MY FRIENDS!
The Reptiles were a support group, it was the summer of 1966 while supporting
one of the biggest Showbands in Ireland at that time, known as the Dixielanders,
who were a very big attraction. When ever or where ever they played. You were
guaranteed a full house. The place was fully packed, there was one girl there
that night, who would later become my wife, her name is Eileen. She was with a
friend of hers whose name was Marie Rose, Eileen was seventeen years young at
that time, to young to be allowed in. You had to be eighteen years of age to be
allowed in. I was nineteen, two years older than her, we met each other on and
of for two or three months. Then all of a sudden, I heard that she went to
London with her friend Marie Rose. One year later I arrived in London and loe
and behold we met again. It was 1967 we were married and over the next few years
she
gave birth to four
wonderful children. Three boys and a girl, those were the
flower power years. There is a saying, that if you remember
the sixties you did not enjoy them.
Every one was high on pot, except Eileen and me, every one
had flowers in there hair except Eileen and me. I spent most
of the time messing about with the guitar, mostly singing
Bob Dylan and Donovan songs. Folk music which is what they
called it at the time. Eileen spent most of her time reading
books that were alien to me. Titles like 'open up your mind
and listen to it', 'bring out the magic of your mind', 'all
you need to know about clairvoyance', 'the power of seeing
in the minds and events, that are in the future', or 'out of
sight', a clairvoyant person who have this gift, and she has
it believe me. I believe it came to her, through the tarot
cards - 78 cards in all - that she found her true forte. I
remember once, early in our marriage while reading one of
her books, she said to me 'do you know that two
Gemini's, as partners will never get on with each other'.
How true that turned out to be, as Eileen and I are both
Gemini's, now separated for some time. However I wish her
all the best in the future, I always knew she was esoteric.
She was born with it, a true and natural gift. May she go
from success to success. Though she is already as successful as can be...
I am very proud of my family. |

| My
first son Jon is also an entertainer who plays all sorts of
instruments, he wrights all his own songs, you will find his website
link on this page. Listen to his new album Life is a Miracle. My
second son Aaron is also an entertainer, guitar and key boards. And
believe it or not my third son Dylan is also an entertainer. |
MY SON DYLAN!

MY SON JON! |
As for my beautiful daughter Lisa, she does not play an instrument,
but she can lash out a song just like a nightingale. I'm very proud
of them all and especially their mother for bringing them into this
world. As for myself: I now live in Portugal, with a Portuguese
woman whose name is Ana Paula. How and why she puts up with me, I'll
never understand.
I believe the love of her life is Lassie her dog,
which is13 years old, kind and gentle, you would have to love her. I,
on the other hand am a Jekyll and Hyde, two people in one. May be
it's because I'm a Gemini, I smoke and drink to much and I know that
I'm very temperamental. I would very much like to develop
temperance, which by the way is my new years resolution.
Yours in all honesty Papa Bull.
