Symi, Stuff & Nonsense James Collins

Following the success of 'Symi 85600' and his two other collections of thoughts from a Greek island, James Collins takes us further afield with his fourth book. Part memoir, part observation, this scrapbook of anecdotes and witty observations takes us from Romney Marsh to Greece via a graveyard campsite, an adult film festival, and some unusual wordplay. What to expect when dining with the Turin jet set, what to learn when moving to Symi, and how to behave when held at gunpoint in Egypt; it's all here along with a few train journeys, some mountaineering, and Symi's first civil partnership. Oh, by the way, there is a fair amount of nonsense too.
