[Ironside's] style of writing is endearing, her escapades laugh-out-loud funny, her thoughts and feeling often poignant [and] her observations pin sharp

Marie may be 'getting on a bit' but it's certainly not getting her down.

Her family around her and a man who loves her means that life is good - but nothing stays the same for long.

Marie's golden years are filled with as much drama - love, laughter and tears - as ever. Which just goes to show that getting on a bit does not mean giving up - or even growing up.
