From the Back Cover
“I stuck a hair dryer on me bunion to stretch me skin out. Didn’t bloomin’ work.”
So begins Brad’s uproarious new life as an Essex native who’s yanked from living his pipe dream in the Spanish sunshine to the grey and wet northwest of England.
In this comedy memoir, Brad is catapulted to a strange land in his homeland where complete strangers tell him about their bunions and insist on showing him the holes “they burned” in the crotch of their swimming trunks.
It’s a land of confusion where everything he thought true comes into question: bread rolls are now called, “barms'; tea is something you eat not drink; almond milk is unheard of because, “yer don't get teats on an almond, stupid!”
It’s a land where Brad is so cold that he’s wearing more coats than a nightclub cloakroom can handle while the locals casually stroll around in their beachwear.
Will fish out of water Brad sink or swim as he adapts to the culture shock of being a soft southerner up north?
One thing’s for sure, you’re in for a pant-pissing, rollercoaster ride of mishaps, mayhem, and meat pies.
So strap on your incontinence pads then scroll up to buy now!
Can an email address scribbled on €20 change a life? Yes!
From the Back Cover
What would you do if you're given a €20 note in Greece with an email address scribbled on it:
1. Spend it?
2. Slip the suspect counterfeit bill into an enemy’s birthday card?
3. Send an email, hoping it will lead to you finding everlasting love?
Brad, a hopeless romantic, chose the latter.
Two years later, his love life remains a disaster and his career is misfiring. As he’s about to walk Spain’s fabled Camino de Santiago to ponder some profound life changes, Brad receives a reply.
Incredibly, it’s from a woman who lives on the pilgrimage path, far away from where the money first crossed his palm. She invites him to sleep… ‘on her house.’
Hiking 900km on the Road to Santiago to a blind date with the mystery €20 woman, Brad has the adventure of a lifetime.
His heart is warmed by fellow pilgrims and natives who give him more reason than ever to believe in the kindness of the human spirit; he befriends a hilarious Hungarian who speaks English in song titles and has his raison d’être revealed to him by a barefoot Mayan mystic.
Will he meet his happily-ever-after along the way too?
