A hilarious memoir of 70s childhood holidays, which involved wet, windy camping trips with grandparents. Disaster was never far away, whether it came in the guise of a force 10 gale on the Welsh coast, or suffering copious amounts of food poisoning on a brave expedition to the south of France. 'An invigorating, warm-hearted and often hysterical read... Brilliant' "Time Out"
Synopsis
For Emma Kennedy, and her mum and dad, disaster always came along for the ride no matter where they went. But they never gave up. This memoir of Emma presents a reminder of just what it was like to spend your summer holidays cold, damp but with sand between your toes.
