Spending a night in a small campervan every week for 52 consecutive weeks may sound crazy. But that was not enough to put RICHARD HARRIS off what he called his 'great daft adventure'. So all through the summer, autumn, winter and spring Ð through sun, rain, gales, ice and snow Ð he set off once a week in his ancient Bongo van. Just because he could.
In BONGO NIGHTS he tells the story of that unforgettable year:
nHow he broke his leg and injured his back . . . but carried on regardless
nHow he inadvertently spent two nights in places associated with murder
nHow he skidded backwards down a hill and crashed into a wall in a blizzard.
nHow he fled in embarrassment when he didn't like the company he was keeping in an isolated lay-by
nHow he spent a night at a Buddhist temple Ð after passing an hour in the company of a dead nun, Bongo campervan, Lake District, wild camping, tourism, Cumbria, RICHARD HARRIS| 9781326496890 | 198PAGES
