Great news!

If you’re looking for a FABULOUS SUMMER TRAVEL READ, the Kindle edition of my award-winning road trip memoir More Manchester Than Mongolia: An Unexpected Road Trip Through Back Road Britain, has been selected by Amazon UK for a 99p Kindle Deal throughout August.

After the promotion, the price goes back up to £2.99.

Tips: Keep Dogs Safe & Cool Your Camper in a Heatwave!
