Aweigh with my mother-in-law!
Adventures Afloat and Ashore with the World's Most Infuriating Passenger
Biography & Memoir
For 15 summers, Rosalind Scott and her husband went cruising, usually in the company of her mother-in-law Lilian. Invariably Lilian managed to put her own inimitable stamp on the holiday by means of everything from staged accidents, exaggerated bouts of sickness and luggage mix-ups to queue-jumping and run-ins with customs officials. Now Rosalind (or 'Roslin' as Lilian always insisted on calling her) has woven together her memories of those cruises, along with stories of encounters with everything from gypsies and self-appointed aristocrats to dragons and hurricanes.
