About this ebook

A laugh out loud antidote to the Corona Virus Lockdown.
Imagine being captured and thrust into a locked-up lock-down. Stalag Corona is a Camp of inmates captured by the Boristasi and led by one Lieut Col Agamemnon Carruthers-Brown. This is the diary of the hapless Senior British Officer in ‘command’ of his troops from the beginning in March 2020 through to his final release in April 2021.
Follow the camps hilarious exploits through the Lieut Col’s daily updates as he struggles to manage the camp, misunderstanding guidelines and accidentally creating mayhem and chaos.
He incompetently tackles the events occurring in the world never realising that he always misses the point. At best he is like the pilot who performs a perfect landing only to find he has landed not only at the wrong airport but in the wrong country! Safe to say if the Lieut Col was to find a stick he would un-erringly grasp the wrong end!
Often bordering on a satire of the Government’s attempts to come to terms with the pandemic, the events in this ‘Coronaditz’ make the real world seem so much more palatable. The Colonel’s take on the daily news, lockdown life and the hopes and fears we all experienced will make you laugh out loud.
Sub Lieut ponnffonby (pronounced Ponssonby but always with a small p and two f’s) is Carruthers-Brown’s Adjutant and arch nemesis who constantly questions what the Lieut Col believes is his perfect leadership as ponffonby himself slides more and more into a Trumpian mindset. Thankfully a cast of other similarly outrageously named troops attempt to implement the Colonel’s orders and keep the Camp running.
If you thought the Corona Virus pandemic was madness read the diary and be thankful that life could always be worse!
