Are we nearly there yet? : a family's 8,000-mile car journey around Britain

Hatch, Ben2011
Book
If you think writing a guidebook is easy, think again! They were bored, broke, burned out and turning 40, so when Ben and Dinah saw the advert looking for a husband and wife team with young kids to write a guidebook about family travel around Britain, they jumped at the chance. With naive visions of staring moodily across Coniston Water and savouring Cornish pasties, they embark on a mad-cap five-month trip with daughter Phoebe, four, and son Charlie, two, embracing the freedom of the open road with a spirit of discovery and an industrial supply of baby wipes. This is a story about love, death, falling out, moving on and growing up, and 8,000 misguided miles in a Vauxhall Astra.
