To the Moon and Back

After his wife’s untimely death and his retirement, George tries to relieve the loneliness and boredom, finding things to do like drawing pictures from photographs and gardening. That warm summer’s day, he tended his rose garden.

As he worked, he talked to Lucy, whose parents lived next door to him. She told him she had moved back to her parents’ house, and that the art college she went to was closed due to the pandemic lockdown, and that she had to do her own coursework from home on her PC. As she could not go to college, she did not see her friends. She was very fed up and lonely.

George said that they could talk when he did his garden, and also he offered to help her with her coursework if she would like. She said yes, thank you.

Over time, a close friendship formed, but there were complications that neither of them could see.

What Just Happened?

We all think we know everything there is to know about our Kings and Queens. Henry VIII had six wives, William the Conqueror invaded England in 1066 and Queen Victoria was “not amused”. But how much do we really know about the monarchy? What did our kings and queens actually achieve? What impact have they had on our everyday lives? What were they like as living, breathing, people?

Crowning Glory wipes away the cobwebs of fuddy-duddy facts and breathes new life into this surprisingly addictive aspect of history. It challenges our basic understanding of the subject by introducing readers to a colourful cast of characters and revealing little-known insights.

This book reminds us that, behind the formality of the crown, are real human beings. Like you and me, they have known success, failure, sorrow and laughter. The lives of our kings and queens are so much more vivid than boring, old dates, figures and facts.

What’s Beyond the Garden Gate

This is the story of how I met a woman, how she unravelled a side of me I never even knew existed – a physical, adventurous, reckless self. This is the story of how I fell in love for the first time and how I struggled to share my new life with my friends and family. This is the story of how I frantically sought an answer to the question we’ve all asked ourselves… Who am I?
