Going Barmy In Britain - Nicholas Walker - Bog

This is the sixth book in the series that started with: Going Round The Bend On The QE2 and concerns the time when Nick and his wife Anjanette have had to escape from the Middle East and have ended back in the UK penniless. It tells of how they move to a tiny house in the very wilds of Scotland where they nearly starve to death. Nick opens up his ballroom dance club: Dancing in the Dark just to support them and shortly afterwards he reopens Kernow Karate. Sinister events though are happening behind the scenes as his battles with the Middle East still continue and death threats become an almost commonplace thing. Nick goes on to fight many more battles, firstly with Reader's Digest, then the whole of Inverness Council and on to a debt collecting boxer. As ever Nick can find the funny side of any situation and his mad mooning of the local vicar and his vendetta with a local farmer and the clash with the poor man who was on his phone while cycling across Inverness bridge will have readers in hysterics. As always the events in this book are absolutely true and it is a great contribution to the other books in this exciting series of autobiographical travelogues.
