I grew up in a small rural Essex village in the 1950's, which I have not named, I've left you to find it . This is a very light hearted look at life for this small girl growing up in 'simpler times' I am now an old married lady with two grown up sons, a stepdaughter and the new generation namely Googs Henry Isabella and Theo. This is my first book and so far, my only critics have been my sister who laughed so loudly her husband told her to 'Shut up ' and my 93 year old aunt who called it 'that bloody book ' because she was so engrossed in it that she missed all her 'soaps' on the T.V. I hope this book makes you smile at the very least, who ever said 'laughter is the best medicine ' wasn't my age with my bladder Enjoy, Heather
