London: Abacus, 1996 Further hilarious adventures of a trevlling English businessman - all the stresses of travel ...airports, food, hotels. lost luggage ,taxis (and their drivers) hotels... from Athens to Africa. "Peter Biddlecombe takes us on another irreverent global tour, snubbing his nose at the "gimmick tourists" and carrying on doing what he does best-business, all over the world, with a wonderfully diverse range of characters. Power-players in Milan, storm-trooping language police in Toronto, and just general chaos in Kinshasa are a mere selection of the obstacles the international businessman must face as he struggles to come to grips with the local way of doing things. But it's all in the name of commerce, and whether he's trapped in a luxury hotel during the riots in Bombay or working his way through a "Good Food Guide" to Ouagadougou, Peter Biddlecombe always comes out with a tale to tell.".

Athens: The British Embassy, 1998 " This short book, published in parallel text in English and Greek, tells the story of the fine house on Loukianou Street, Athens, which is now the British Ambassador's Residence. The handsome neo-classical house was commissioned by Helena Schilizzi, the wife of the Greek statesman Eleftherios Venizelos, in the 1930s. It was designed by the architect Anastasios Metaxas, who also designed the restored Panathenaic Stadium where the 1896 Olympic Games were held. After Venizelos died in 1936, his widow Helena sold the house to the British Government. It has served since then as the British Embassy. The house, which contains the famous portrait of Byron in Albanian costume by Thomas Phillips, was the scene of dramatic events in December 1944, when Winston Churchill visited Athens at the time of the uprising of the communist army ELAS against the Greek Government and allied forces." 77p.
