TALES FROM ELSEWHERE

About the Book

This is a second foray into the author's life experiences as she re-introduces readers to her extended family and friends who were first encountered in her previous book Tales from the Seaside. This selection of tales are taken from other family holidays which span the author's lifetime. Readers accompany the family as they gallop across Europe, go north of the border and attempt to exchange their water-skis for snow skis, deal with mother and daughter drunken escapades, excitable vibrating beds, being marooned in a dinghy after losing the oars and the author's first (and only) bull-fighting experience. More fun and frolics experienced by all.

About the Author

Born in East London in the middle of the twentieth century, the author became a typist when she left school. She met her husband when someone else brought him as a guest to her eighteenth birthday party and thirty-seven years later she still considers him to be the best birthday present she has ever received. Borry's degree in teaching was the wrong career choice so she did other things and is now medically retired from being an Offender Manager. She is a loving mum and nanna, and spends as much time as she can with Ginger, the love of her life.
