Our Doris

 

The Partridge Mews Women’s Institute have announced a Garden Safari and Doris Copeland, pillar of the community with a tenure as Maria in The Sound of Music that involved an awful gastrointestinal bug, plans on securing her position as fifth house.

 

Join her as she battles ne’er do well slugs, searches for the perfect artisan sausage and comes against her mortal enemy  Janice Dooley of Little Street, all whilst maintaining a perfectly Silvakrinned hairstyle.

 

All told from the perspective of her long-suffering husband ‘arold, a man who’d be quite happy to stay home and watch re-runs of Groundforce.

 

All books purchased will be treated as pre-orders and dispatched around publication on the 20th June 2015.
