"I'll take it!" cried Michael as he opened the letter that had just dropped through the letterbox of his Edinburgh home, offering him a job in the South of Ireland.But the five-hundred-mile move soon runs into problems. He's prohibited from taking Flossy and Sugar, his long-eared companions of five years, on an aeroplane. More unfortunately still, he's banned from driving on motorways in his little three-wheeled car.Michael and rabbits are therefore forced to take a long and arduous but entertaining and enchanting journey across Scotland, England, Wales and Ireland by country back roads.Expecting their journey to end in Ireland, Michael subsequently finds that travels with three-wheeler and rabbits are to take him further still.Based on a true story, the author recounts the journey in a way that will enlighten and entertain readers of all ages across the English-speaking World.This is a "must read," in particular for anyone planning a journey across the countries that comprise the British Isles...and, maybe, beyond.

Safe electoral districts, the influence of big money and the focus on political wins have trumped the welfare of American citizens who fail to show up for elections to effect change by voting for their own interests and those of America.
