‘Take the next left onto B709,’ says the satnav.

‘Where is she taking us?’ says the passenger.

‘I’m just following the directions, dear,’ says the driver.

‘Are we there yet?’ From the backseat.

’10 minutes away,’ says the passenger, ‘I can see the castle from here.’

‘You said that 5 minutes ago!’

‘It’s these bloody tourists,’ says the driver.

‘We’re tourists too. And mind your language in front of the kids.’

‘I’m hungry.’

Blast of the horn. ‘You can’t park there!’ out the window.

‘There’s a nice pub there. Shall we stop for a bite to eat?’

Pulling over.

‘You have not reached your destination. Take the next left.’

Altogether now: ‘Shut up!’

I’m delighted that ‘The Barra Boy’ is now available in the US , Canada and around the world through Amazon, as well as from many booksellers in the UK. If you’re interested, you can find all the information for getting a copy HERE.
