Fresh Eggs and Dog Beds by Nick Albert - Memiors
“How would they cope with banks that didn’t want customers, builders who
didn’t need work, or the complex issue of where to buy some chickens?”
didn’t need work, or the complex issue of where to buy some chickens?”
Nick has just given up his job due to his health and fortunately redundancy was on the
table. He has led a very stressful life and now it’s time for something new. They are
looking for somewhere new to live to downsize price wise. After working out the
logistics Ireland becomes a possibility. They take a short break to discover what the
Emerald Isle has to offer and discover much more than they ever thought! Drivers
who wave, people who chat, odd and eccentric nuances that they would never have
found in England. I loved this and took to it very early on. It is clearly written from
the heart and with a sense of humour along the way. After much deliberation they
find their dream house and then a solicitor who doesn’t want to to deal with it
because of its problems. Along the way people selling a house who want to live
in it for a year free of charge once it has been purchased. Only in Ireland!
A truly wonderful entertaining read that I highly recommend. Love it and can’t
wait for the next one.
