Granny had another career aside from teaching. This book arose from the fifteen years spent as a well-being consultant at a well known health spa. Unusually, the basic theme is rooted in evolution. Referring many aspects of modern life back to ways in which our distant ancestors behaved, there is advice to make life easier.  Most of Granny's spa clients were women, but much of the book is relevant to men too.

Currently it is 2020. Is this a time when people need something that is not offered by conventional religion? This message of anger, rejection and hope may bring a new way of recognising God. The book emerged from Granny's thinking about aspects of her childhood, a realisation of the insidious nature of indoctrination that can go by the name of education and religion. This book could make you think too, maybe even cause you to live your life differently.

An evocative account of growing up in a distinctive North-East fishing village, this is a description of a particular community, and a microcosm of postwar 1950s England. Anyone who has been a child before 1960 will recognise some of the experiences and influences described here. Sometimes painful, always authentic.
