When Barbara first bumped into Norman, she had no idea just how attached they would become. But their mishap in a supermarket car park was just the beginning and before they knew it they had embarked on a series of misadventures, meeting an assortment of eccentric characters along the way.

Together with their friends, a forgetful vicar, two old ladies who love to dress up as nuns, a flash suburban couple, a short sighted bus driver, a sporty couple and a couple who hate taking risks, this book follows Barbara and Normans less than conventional retirement.

Nothing had prepared them for their encounter with drag-queen-in-distress Paris Milan though and, coming to her rescue, they find themselves in ever more extraordinary circumstances.
