Enter the world of Susan Lilian Townsend - sun-worshippers, work-shy writers, garden-centre lovers and those in search of a good time all welcome. Over the last decade, Sue Townsend has written a monthly column for Sainsbury's Magazine, which covers everything from hosepipe bans and Spanish restaurants to writer's block and the posh middle-aged woman she once met who'd never heard of Winnie-the-Pooh. Collected together now for the first time, they form a set of pieces from one of Britain's most popular and acclaimed writers that is funny, perceptive and touching.

Review:
'Full of homely, hilarious asides on the absurdities of domestic existence...What a fantastic advertisement for middle-age -it can't be bad if it's this funny.' -- Heat Magazine

'Proof, once more, that Townsend is one of the funniest writers around.' -- Times, 'Play' Magazine

'This eclectic mix of comical tales will bring a wry smile and giggle to anyone' -- Time Out

'This is little England seen through the eyes of one of its best-loved satirists, and a welcome addition to any bookshelf' -- Hello! Magazine

'Townsend is every woman's favourite Everywoman.' -- Good Housekeeping
About the Author:
Sue Townsend was born in Leicester in 1946. Despite not learning to read until the age of eight, leaving school at fifteen with no qualifications and having three children by the time she was in her mid-twenties, she always found time to read widely. She also wrote secretly for twenty years. After joining a writers' group at The Phoenix Theatre, Leicester, she won a Thames Television award for her first play, Womberang, and became a professional playwright and novelist. After the publication of The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole Aged 13¾, Sue continued to make the nation laugh and prick its conscience. She wrote seven further volumes of Adrian's diaries and five other popular novels - including The Queen and I, Number Ten and The Woman Who Went to Bed for a Year - and numerous well received plays. Sue passed away in 2014 at the age of sixty-eight. She remains widely regarded as Britain's favourite comic writer.
