July 2013 Travel Book of the Month.

First published in Australia and one of those surprise bestsellers, this unique memoir cum travel book cum recipe book is an absolute gem! After 40 years apart two old school friends ‘Hil and Liz’ meet up and on the spur of the moment decide to go on a holiday to Morocco. Even though they are as different as chalk and cheese this first holiday has lead to a global adventure where they have well and truly tested the maxim ‘leap and the net will appear!’

It’s as much about friendship, a love of life and laughter as it is about travel to far flung places. Perfect for fans of Michael Palin, the Two Fat Ladies and armchair travellers everywhere.

 

A 'Piece of Passion' from Miriam Margolyes on Growing Old Outrageously
‘Talk about the Change of Life. You'll never be the same after reading this. Batty but brilliant Hilary and Liz insist we follow them to the ends of the earth. We get recipes, an intelligent travel book and a lesson in Living. These two very different old friends travelled everywhere honestly and thoughtfully. It's completely original - insightful, moving and very funny, a glorious experience proving for always, that if you seize the day and have the courage, you need never grow old.’
