Not Quite Nice

Imrie, C. (2015). Not Quite Nice. London:Bloomsbury.

Dr Anne has memories of Celia Imrie in Calendar Girls and the Marigold Hotel films.  She has memories of her Christmas and New Year in Nice in 2014 going along the coast to St Tropez and up to Monaco and the casino.

SS gave Dr Anne this book as she recuperates with her broken knee.  She looked at it and hesitated a few times then on Sunday she opened it up.

It's the story of women of a certain age, Dr Anne's age, looking for a bit of excitement in their mature years.  Some have money, some have none.  Some have children problems, a wayward husband, a gambling son, and errant daughter.  Then there are the crooks...

It was an enjoyable read.  Dr Anne awards 7/10.
