description: In this sequel to the uproarious Any Fool Can Be A Countryman there are more revelations from the soft underbelly of rural life. There is none of the country candyfloss of skipping lambkins, maypole dancing and apple-cheeked innocence about in James Robertson' countryside. People struggle to maintain their dignity in the farcical situations that Nature throws at them and they create for themselves. How does an arrogant illiterate old farmer go about finding a wife who has to match up to his high expectation? How do you extract one ton of randy bull from a river? Why do so many pumas prowl the peaceful English meadows? And how can the townsman fit into a typically timeless country village whose unsophisticated simple inhabitants have a ruthless cunning that the likes of JR, Machiavelli or Iago could only dream about?Politicians, pilots, actors, policemen, and tourists, as well as natives discover again that the most widespread crop to be found in the countryside is the banana skin.
