Going Mental in Mallorca

My Family's Battle With Covid

De: Nicholas Walker

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

This is the seventh book in the series that started with: Going Round The Bend On The QE2 and concerns the time when the never totally sane Nick is confronted by his own mortality and reacts in his typical fashion of running away. This time he takes his daughter and granddaughter with him to Mallorca where he takes a job in a posh school and reopens his dance and karate clubs. On this peaceful, holiday island, there are a number of spectres: conman Headteachers, hostile local teachers, racist locals and a gentleman who is sick over your car and offers to clean it up for cash! Covid is waiting in the wings and overnight Nick and his family lose everything and are left locked up in a tiny house with no money. Nick though, as always, can find the funny side of any situation and his mad battles with the school staff, fiery locals and indeed, the vomiting Barcellonian, will have readers in hysterics. As always the events in this book are absolutely true and it is a great contribution to the other books in this exciting series of autobiographical travelogues.
