Any Other Funny Business

Panic and hilarious misunderstandings abound when a well-meaning Englishman with only schoolboy French (failed) is elected to the council of a small rural village in South West France.A very English insight into the 'Funny Business' part of 'Any Other Business' at the end of Council meetings. Usually just before the wine is opened.The vivid descriptions put you right at the Council table and at site meetings, where confusion is inevitable when two cultures meet and different languages are spoken, often at the same time.Don't be mistaken by these seemingly tranquil villages nestling amongst the vineyards and sunflowers. All life is here, behind the closed doors of the Mairie. The author paints this fictional, but believable picture from 10 years' experience on the Council in a rural paradise.Warning. Don't read this book on a crowded train. The witty account will have you laughing out loud.
