    About this audiobook

    Laughing at Myself

    These laugh out loud, hilarious, candid tales of awkward meetings, terrible driving tests, dodgy hairdos and accidentally flashing, show just what a minefield life can be.

    The big question is how will we survive the embarrassment?

    Whether you are the sort of person who trips over fresh air, or you have the poise of a Queen, these tales will delight you.

    “Loved Laughing at Myself…easy to read, episodic, the type of book you want to read on a rainy day, with a cuppa and a biscuit (or three)”.

    “Delightfully cringeworthy, humorous book…”

    “Thoroughly enjoyed Laughing at Myself… had some laugh out loud moments. I read it in one sitting as I wanted to know what she did next!”
