From Paella to Porridge by Peter Kerr
The Kerr family say goodbye to their orange farm in Mallorca, and put it up for sale after three years of hard work. The Mallorcan experience comes to an end with a farewell fiesta for neighbours and friends, full of comic shenanigans but tinged with sadness. But now begins the return-to-Scotland adventure, and what a cultural shock is in store. Welcomed back by family, the Kerrs make plans to start a deer farm on a remote hillside, the beginning of a period of challenges and change, of buying and restoring houses in the lovely Scottish countryside. Meanwhile, Peter explores Scotland with fresh eyes, visiting such places as the `Biarritz of the North’ where Robert Louis Stevenson used to holiday, and giving us an insider’s view of the world-famous Edinburgh Military Tattoo. There’s never a dull moment in the Kerr household. Follow Peter on Twitter - @AuthorPeterKerr
