What fantastic value! Five interesting and varied travel memoirs, a brilliant price. I have read three out of the five already; Chickens, Mules and Two Old Fools by Victoria Twead which tells us of her move to a new life in Spain with her husband Joe and their adventures. Told with humour and with some accompanying recipes of foods which crop up in the book. Alan Parks' book is also a winner; he and his partner Lorna tell of their experiences changing Brighton for Spain and breeding Alpacas and the joy, laughter and tears along the way. Joe Cawley's memoir tells of his experiences from a fish market in England to being a barman in Tenerife. Savannah Grace's memoir is unusual- strikingly subtitled 'I Grew My Boobs In China' and details how her mum wanted to 'up sticks' when Savannah was very young and sold possessions and the family set off travelling around the world for a few years. Tony Slater's book is about his experiences in Ecuador as a volunteer at an animal refuge. A fabulous bunch of books, great value, would make great holiday reading.
