Description

The Pig that Got his PPL
This is not a story about dreaming of the impossible. It’s about quietly questioning assumptions everyone else treats as settled fact. A pig who spends time looking at the sky doesn’t argue with slogans like “when pigs fly” — he simply learns. Through observation, patience, and systems that don’t care who you are once the forms are filled in, the pig earns his pilot’s licence without fuss or spectacle. The result isn’t rebellion, but perspective: proof that learning, done properly, opens doors that sayings insist are locked.

Allsorts is a loose-limbed collection of short pieces for adult readers — observant, sometimes wry, sometimes unsettling — where ordinary moments quietly reveal the way we really think, decide, and live.
