Summary

Never believe that life in a tiny Spanish mountain village is predictable.

Vicky and Joe have finished fixing up their house and look forward to peaceful days enjoying their retirement. Then the fish van arrives and, instead of delivering fresh fish, disgorges the Ufarte family. The peace of El Hoyo is shattered. Packed with badly behaved humans and animals, irreverent humour and sunshine, this audiobook will make you laugh out loud.

Two old fools

Great book loved it and do hope the other old fool books become available on here too. Thought the reader sounded a lot like Joyce Grenfel she was perfect.

Lovely second book in series


Thoroughly enjoyed the first book, which inspired me to get the second, which can sometimes fall flat, but it did not.

Jilly Bond reads the books, but is not my favorite choice, however I just put up with her amateur dramatics voice, as the books are so interesting.

I rather fancy a visit to El Hoyo, it sounds idyllic.

Lovely easy listening

Great books. Love their adventures. Can’t wait for the next instalment.
Although there lives are not overly adventurous the way the story is written so well it really makes you feel like you are there. I think if I met Vicky and Joe I would feel like I knew them already.

Just brilliant

I finished the first book yesterday and was delighted to find out that there was another. The narrator does a great job bringing the book alive.
I really enjoyed both books.

The adventure continues! ...

I'm so glad the adventures of the Tweads continue - and always look forward to more!! It's the day to day things that make this such a great listen - as if you are visiting/living with friends in a bit of paradise, while you read it. The characters they meet are hysterical, the situations they find themselves in are likewise things that just wouldn't happen in our lives, and the whole adventure is something to be savoured.

Great enjoyment

I enjoyed listening to the tales of life in Andulisia. So truly realistic. I’m not a cat lover but became intrigued to know what happened to the kittens and their mother so was pleased that the details were in the epilogue.
