- The Prodigal Tourist
- Years ago I shed my Cockney accent and left London's blighted East End for America. Since then, I’ve only returned to see my increasingly cantankerous parents and assorted relatives. Until my American wife comes along. She wants to tour, see the sights. No thank you. It’s not for me. But she insists, and I become a reluctant tourist in my former homeland.
Have a great shot of England?

Oh, Denis, your family is a riot!
This is hilarious!!! I laughed until I had tears in my eyes. Denis - I love it when you do all the accents. I seriously think you should bring ths out on audiobook too (or have you done so already?)
Michelloui--the music is Jerusalem which, oddly enough, is as close as we get to a national song. One of my favourites.
Villager & Sharon--yes, a bunch of characters! This is one of our fave bits (though probably not Tony's for some strange reason!)
Mandy--glad you laughed so hard (and thanks for subscribing!). Regarding the audio book, that's very flattering, but if we don't sell enough books there won't be an audio version. So please, do your part, spread the word!
Well, depending on when my copy arrives, I hope to have a review up in the new year.
Hilarious,and glad to have found your blog ....
Wonderful! Always fun to visit here.
What a great reading. I love the way you do the different voices. That makes me wonder how the family feels about the book and videos.
this is brilliant! Loved the voices, very well done! and yes, it counts!
