***** A BRILLIANT BOOK FOR LAUGHTER AND MEMORIES, 13 Sep 2014

Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: But Can You Drink The Water? (Droll, witty, and utterly British) (Kindle Edition)
One word describes this book BRILLIANT. Obvious that the Author Emigrated from UK to RSA. I and my family left Liverpool same as the Author for RSA also in the 70s.Every situation, Every Page related to EXACTLY what happened to ourselves as the Author experienced, even down to when we returned to the UK on Holiday. Both the Wife and I shed tears of Laughter. It brought back many memories. We also had the Wife's Parents out on Holiday and once again we relived the humour and wIt. Even down to the MELBA TOAST. EXCELLENT and once again BRILLIANT. A MUST FOR EVERY Ex Pat to South Africa to read.

Alicia Thomas-Woolf (aliciatw) I just checked out your book on amazon and bought a copy. I was giving little snorts of laughter right through the sample!

Nice one, Jan.
