Following his successful I'll Give It Six Months, a delightful and humorous memoir, and Travels With My Appetite, his take on travel and food, Robert Howe's third literary venture is into the world of poetry and proves equally as entertaining. His poems and limericks, in the style of Pam Ayres, whom he greatly admires, are both humorous and touching and will keep you smiling throughout, with a few more that are sober and heart-rending. His career has been as diverse as his travels, from a chef in a London hospital to a spell in the Diplomatic Service. Now retired, he lives near his favourite city, Chester, with his wife, Linda Fraser-Webb.

From war-torn London to the Diplomatic Service, Robert Howe's memoir is a fascinating insight into an interesting and, at times humorous, life. With a famous name on nearly every page and enough diverse careers to fill two lifetimes, this true account of life in the Merchant Navy, the Civil Service, and London in the fifties and sixties will surprise and make you smile throughout. It contains many conversations with some very famous people, including Omar Sharif and Rudolf Nureyev. It also includes a few arguments he has had with various MPs and pop stars. Having travelled extensively, his time living in France will delight everyone who has ever spent time in that country. An excellent chef and keen cyclist, he lives near his favourite City, Chester, with his wife Linda Fraser-Webb.
