Beyond the Meander

... A MID-LIFE ADVENTURE IN THE CATALAN COUNTRYSIDE

Two Scorpios with a relationship of only six months, minimal Spanish, amateur DIY skills and not catering experience - what could possibly go wrong? This story isn't just about DIY. It offers a glimpse in o life among the wonderful rural folk of Catalunya, where the author forged lifelong friendships and learned about a region steeped in history, still bearing the scars of civil war 70 years earlier.

"What an interesting read. Gives a lovely insight into developing a project at the turn of the century, with delightful interactions with the local Catalan people, along with an interesting look at the countryside around the River Ebro. Looking forward to the next book."

"Read it in one sitting. It that's not a good review, I don't know what is! More please!

"A very enjoyable read. I didn't know anything about that area of Spain. Now the story has brought it all to life."

"Enjoyable read, well written and easy to follow. Very interesting facts and in formation about that area of Catalunya. Can't wait to read the next book to see how the Finca develops."
