About this so-called Fat Bloke from Bolton...
In Eddie’s own words:
“It has been a very long, difficult journey of survival since I ran away from Bolton aged fifteen in 1967. But my story has a delightfully happy ending
and continues to be a very happy story for me and many thousands of very needy people who continue to survive even worse hardships than I did.”
