Even on the other side of the world, problems always have a way of finding you.
Even on the other side of the world, problems always have a way of finding you.
Ever wish you could leave all your problems behind and make a fresh start somewhere else? Trade the stresses and strains of everyday life for your own slice of sun-kissed paradise on the other side of the world?
Jamie and Laura Newman certainly have. When Jamie's spectacular meltdown at work results in his immediate redundancy, and Laura starts to realise that her working days always seem to end up with her rugby-tackling defenceless pensioners in the street, a move ten thousand miles away sounds ideal. It might also mend some of the cracks that have appeared in their marriage over the past few months.So when Laura is offered a new job in Australia, the Newman family think their dreams have come true. But as the old saying goes - be careful what you wish for, you might just get it. As the hapless couple soon find out, problems have a way of following you, no matter how far you go to avoid them. Can love survive under different skies?“In need of a belly laugh? Then you'll love this - Fabulous Magazine (The Sun on Sunday)”
Nick Spalding is an author who, try as he might, can't seem to write anything serious. He's worked in the communications industry his entire life, mainly in media and marketing. As talking rubbish for a living can get tiresome (for anyone other than a politician), he thought he'd have a crack at writing comedy fiction - with an agreeable level of success so far, it has to be said. Nick lives in the South of England with his fiancee. He is approaching his forties with the kind of dread usually associated with a trip to the gallows, suffers from the occasional bout of insomnia, and still thinks Batman is cool. You can find out more about Nick by following him on twitter _author or by reading his blog http://spaldings-racket.blogspot.co.uk/
