Another BBC radio show!

I was invited to talk about horror stories and moving house today for the BBC Birmingham radio show with the lovely Michelle Dawes who was standing in for Caroline Martin's show.

Michelle is currently trying to move house and is living with family at the moment as their house sale isn't progressing well.

Catch the show here

This review is from: Diary of a House Move (Paperback) An easy read and light hearted journey of a couples experience trying to sell and buy a new house. A journal style highlighting the highs and lows of trying to find a suitable house for them to live + their pets. The author should do this for a living - is there such a thing as professional house movers?!

I bought this because I'm moving house and needed a bit of light relief and certainly got it, it is a very funny book.

Reader comments

"This book is full of those moments and observations that make you shake your head, or laugh out loud. For anyone who has dabbled in buying or selling a home, this is a must read"

"As a former property lawyer, I don't need to read beyond the pitch to know this will be hilarious!"

"This is an accurate detailed and very funny look at moving house – but oh so true!"

"This is a fun book to read!"

"I loved the story of throwing the ball to Nephew. Your book was a delightful read and I thank you for writing it"

“This is a great read, and deals with a topic that touches us all- moving! The way you engage the reader with humour is wonderful! It really made me laugh!!”

“Before starting to read thought what a strange thing to write about, finished book one o-clock in the morning reading all chapters of this amazing story of a terrible year of stress selling and buying houses. Brought back some not so good memories of my own. This book is so well done, I had many laughs through the search for the right home.”

About Deborah

Deborah Fielding was born in a mining village in Yorkshire (although her husband thinks she was swapped at birth and is actually French). Growing up in the 1980s during the miners' strikes she formed a habit of picking up things everyday people leave behind. Deborah still lives in theYorkshire area but tends to purchase rather than pick up off the street these days. After giving up a career as a Primary School teacher due to illness in the form of Crohn's Disease, Deborah's natural style, flair and love of all things chic (and the inability to sit still for longer than 5 minutes) means she is in constant search for the next blank canvas.

All that life has thrown at Deborah has given her a unique take on any situation where she is able to apply Yorkshire logic and find humour.

Diary of a house move is her first book and it was developed after moving house a couple of times. Her second diary is currently in development. Deborah also writes a couple of blogs which covers crafting, design and house decoration. You can find the blogs here at www.beehappyhome.blogspot.com and www.beehappyhomedesign.blogspot.com where she has a large group of followers from around the world who enjoy reading and seeing photos of her projects and crafts.
