Description

She's old-old school, has a backbone of steel a stiff upper lip and a heart of gold.

A poignant but humorous tale of a family reconnection.

Getting old is not easy, but it's more fun if you open your heart, mind and arms.

A compelling and humorous insight of past years and present dilemma's as Rose reflects on her usefulness in later life. Just as she acknowledges and accepts her sell-by-date is approaching, life suddenly becomes interesting again in more ways than one.

"I loved Rose's straightforward attitude and I especially enjoyed her blossoming friendship with Bill.
Terrific story, great characters and exceptional writing made this one of my favorite stories that I have read in a while. I will be looking into more by this author and I will definitely be recommending her to all my fellow readers." Lisa B

"This book was quite a thought provoking read. There were some really funny conversations and banter that brought a smile to my face. There were touching and emotional moments that made me connect to Rose and the story.
I admired Rose and her 'get on with it' attitude. She's old-old school, all about making do, saving pennies, waste-not want-not, thriftiness and needing to feel productive. A far cry from our modern, 'throw-away', fast food, instant gratification, consumer societies. She is sweet, loving and caring- but has a backbone of steel with a no-nonsense and 'proper' attitude. Rose reminded me of my Nan." Angela Hayes

"I love how this book ends with Rose having a purpose to live and a renewed vitality. This was a pick me up story and I would highly recommend this book to everyone" Sunday Barnaby.
