About this listen
Ideal addition to the Downstairs Loo Library
This is a book of parts. Part tongue-in-cheek field guide, part comic memoire and country yearbook. It’s also a chronicle of calamities – of those unexpected events and terrible ordeals that can occur when you are out and about, just trying to enjoy life.
Set over the course of 12 months, covering everything from driven pheasant, fishing in the Pyrenees, goose shooting in Scotland, boar hunting in France and foraging for food on freezing beaches in the 1970s.
Some anecdotes have previously appeared in the longer book 'Life's a Banquet'
