This is a delightfully quirky collection of short stories, full of wit, wisdom and warmth. Some of these stories would make great short TV films. I hope this is not the last we will hear from John Eaves as he has much to offer.

This is a beautifully written collection of short stories, with each one offering something different to think about and enjoy. I particularly enjoyed how each story has its own atmosphere and personality. Some stories are heart-warming , others are emotional and there are moments that stay with you even after you have finished reading.
"By the time I'd got to the end of the first story I knew I was in for a treat. Stories of ordinary people with extraordinary outcomes. Held my attention, surprised and amused me."
