The title of the book Smithereens captures the grief caused by the death of Sharon, my best friend. However, this is no misery memoir. In essence, it's about wringing the most out of our short lives!

Ostensibly about a Scottish couple renovating a crumbling farmhouse in Aquitaine that's been in the family for generations on a shoestring budget, this book is really a quirky memoir covering far more than just the renovation. From considering mud, Brexit, ducks, football, political activism, local history, hunters, wine, food, riot police, etc.
