This is a second foray into the author's life experiences as she re-introduces readers to her extended family and friends who were first encountered in her previous book, Tales from the Seaside. This selection of tales are taken from other family holidays over the author's lifetime. Readers accompany the family as they gallop across Europe, go north of the border and attempt to exchange their water-skis for snow skis, deal with mother and daughter drunken escapades, excitable vibrating beds, being marooned in a dinghy after losing the oars and the author's first (and only) bull-fighting experience. More fun and frolic is experienced by all.
