Mark Wallington (born 1953 in Swanage) is a writer, perhaps most famous for his humorous "Boogie" travelogues,〔"Travels with Boogie"(''500 Mile Walkies'' and ''Boogie up the River'') London, Random House(1986;89- reissued 2006) ISBN 978-0-09-950312-5〕 both memorably serialised on BBC Radio Four.
He was working as a gardener in North London in 1979 when he began his writing career working with Dick Fiddy, submitting sketches to ''Not the Nine O'clock News'' and ''The Dave Allen Show''. They later scripted the BBC sitcom ''All Night Long''. In 1982 Wallington walked the South West coast path with his urban dog, Boogie. He wrote up the journey in ''500 Mile Walkies'' which became a best seller. ''Boogie up the River'' followed in 1989. In 1991 Wallington published a novel, ''The Missing Postman'', and then scripted the TV series starring James Bolam. His second novel, ''Happy Birthday Shakespeare'' (1999) was also turned into a TV two-parter.
Wallington's further TV work includes ''Station Jim'' (2001)and ''The Man who Lost his Head'' (2007). In 2005 he published ''The Day Job'', an account of his gardening days, and in 2012 ''The Uke of Wallington'', the story of his journey through Britain with a ukulele.
