JOYRIDE: To a Reunion at Kardamyli
Tony Scotland writer, publisher & broadcaster talks about his latest book
In October 1990 three Bright Old Things, widowed muses of the Brideshead generation, set off by car from Bayswater to drive 2,000 miles through France and Italy to the warm south. Their destination was the Peloponnese for a fortnight with old friends. Each had her own personal reasons for making the epic journey, but together their purpose was to drink to friendship in the late autumn of their lives.
