Biography

I nagged poor Joe into moving from England to Spain in 2004. We settled into a tiny mountain village in Andalucía, became reluctant chicken farmers and ended up owning probably the most dangerous cockerel in Spain.

Our story is told in my new book, 'Chickens, Mules and Two Old Fools' which was awarded the HarperCollins Authonomy Gold Star.

If Joe and Vicky had known what relocating to a tiny mountain village in Andalucia would be like, they might have hesitated... They have no idea of the culture shock in store. No idea they'll become reluctant chicken farmers and own the most dangerous cockerel in Spain. No idea they'll help capture a vulture or be rescued by a mule. Will they stay, or return to the relative sanity of England?

What a charming and well-written story! I only intended to read the first few pages, but ended up reading the whole thing in one afternoon. I liked the setting, the humour and all the characters, plus it had the added bonus of a generous sprinkling of dogs, cats and goats!
