The book is only available to UK customers (according to the website) but Bettys are very accomodating and I'm sure they would post one out to you if you sent them a very nice letter!!...

I was born in Auckland, parents left when I was 6 months for Australia and then Chester. Raised in Melbourne and Chester, came to NZ because hubby wanted to come but glad I did.
Haha, you're as misplaced as me - I have a kiwi accent and try to convince people I'm english
I lived in Chester too - was my first foray into living by myself with no parental guidance - from 1992 to 1994. I left to go to London.

Would the orchard shop be called Izard's and opposite Parrs Park? I go there for hideously priced gravy
