About this audiobook
If Joe and Vicky had known what relocating to a tiny mountain village in Andalucía would REALLY be like, they might have hesitated. They can have no idea of the culture shock in store for them… no idea they'll become reluctant chicken farmers and own the most dangerous cockerel in Spain… no idea they'll help capture a vulture and be rescued by a mule. Will they stay, or will they return to the relative sanity of England?
