The Desperate Diary of a Country Housewife - Tapa dura

For everyone who’s ever dreamed of moving to the country, to those that loathe the idea.

Fresh air, green fields and a new life for the family in a beautiful, rambling country house...

It’s what city dwellers dream about isn’t it? Now when you’ve got to contend with:

· Discovering your home is a national slug hot spot.
· Coffee mornings with unemployed lady-mums (i.e Hell).
· Collapsing ceilings and leaky lavatories.
· Garden warfare with the neighbour.
· Being given a 'Bonnie Tyler' by the local hairdresser.
· Dangerous liaisons with the builder

So it's going to be perfect. Definitely. I think. I mean of course it is.

Or have I made a terrible mistake?

Fresh air, lush green fields, abundant wildlife, a rambling (aka dilapidated) house may all be idyllic and lovely but not when you've got to contend with:
·Discovering your home is a national slug hot spot
·Coffee mornings with unemployed lady-mums (i.e Hell)
·Collapsing ceilings and leaky lavatories
·Garden warfare with the neighbours
·Being given a 'Bonnie Tyler' by the local hairdresser

Based on The Country Mole, the hugely successful Sunday Times column, The Diary of a Desperate Country Housewife is a sharp, witty, incredibly rude and highly entertaining account of real country living.
