The phantom planter Facebook page just passed 115k followers guys, unreal, thank you to everyone for all the support and for all the trees phantom planted.


Some guy commented on one of my book chapters yesterday saying have I checked this over with a lawyer as I could be incriminating myself with some of the stuff I talk about. 


My book is about the phantom planter, who is the phantom planter? Maybe its auto fiction or maybe its not, for now they are just stories, up to you whether you believe them or not....


But can you imagine if I got arrested for writing a book, think it would make phantom planting even more cooler and probably make my book a best seller!


I dont really fear jail these days though, monks in Tibet deliberately lock themselves away for 3 years, 3 months and 3 days in an attempt to attain enlightenment, everything has its positives in life, it all just depends on our mindset.


But somehow I dont think it would ever come to that, mother nature needs me out here, the real spiritual practice for me is helping nature and the community, none of us can practice any sort of faith while these 2 things are dying, its all soil, soul and society, all three need to be in balance for all of us to survive physically and spiritually....


Again thank you for all the support guys and hope you phantom plant a tree!

  A bit about me and how I became the phantom planter. I grew up in a Loyalist housing estate in Belfast, my father a Protestant and my mother was a Catholic from Ardyone, that had big complications here in Northern Ireland but I always knew I was a mongrel, a bit different! My dad was a delboy ( a buyer and seller of everything and anything) and from I could walk he had me a mini Delboy, from selling round the doors to off loading lorry loads of bootlegged cigs and booze straight in from Andorra, he had me street trading and playing part in his delboy tricks to help him sell his dodgy goods! I learned fast how to make money and school for me was my business, I had more money than the teachers, my dad would have stocked my bag up at lunchtimes for me with more of his dodgy goods, perfume, tobacco, clothing, all sorts I had in my bag, even sold some of my goods to the teachers! When I left school I was financially embarrassed for a small time, 1000 pupils to me was 1000 people with a po

From Spain to Belfast Phantom Planting!

  Phantom planted another apple tree yesterday with my big glaswegian pal who is over visiting! He couldn't believe the size of the orchard now! Last time we planted a tree was years ago in Spain, 2 plum trees we phantom planted out there, sadly they didn't survive but we had great fun doing it in the lashing rain right outside the Buddhist Stupa as you can see in one of the pics, an offering to the Buddha was my intention! I was at the worst of my addictions back then, used to visit this Stupa a lot for spiritual guidance, really found myself out there, spent a lot of time in Spain soul searching, taking advantage of the cheap winter flights and free stay! I had my last ever pint at the airport after praying at this Stupa, the Buddha responded to my offering I believe! Pretty magical really, faith in a higher power guys, that did it for me, there's more to all this life, more to all this all this world! "Those who don't believe in magic will never find it"..
