Inhaltsangabe

Recipe for the perfect Orlando Adventures book: Take a little bit of Orlando magic. Scatter a sprinkling of Disney fairy dust. Add in a bucketful of Black Country cynicism. One Grumpy Middle-Aged Dad. Combine slowly with two weeks of boiling hot weather, a pair of teenage kids, a highly-strung wife and a massive overdraft. Oh, and daily thunderstorms. Then stir. Slowly. Until Grumpy Middle-Aged Dad reaches boiling point. From Dudley to Disney – take a trip with Grumpy as he blogs his way around Orlando, trekking from one park to the other whilst spending a fortune in 100 degree heat. Grumpy Middle-Aged Dad – Adventures in Orlando captures all of the madness, frustration and chaos of a Black Country bloke and full time miserable git on his third "once in a lifetime" holiday in the Sunshine State, allegedly the World’s favourite holiday destination... pah. Michael Hadley is The Grumpy Middle-Aged Dad, and he really is grumpy. Born and brought up in the heart of The Black Country, Hadley captures all of the regions’ sarcastic, sardonic, sense of humour in a sideways swipe at the sickly sweet world of Disney and Orlando. All proceeds from the sale of this book go to two UK charities, so stop reading this and just buy it.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Michael Hadley is the Grumpy Middle-Aged Dad. Aged 49. Hadley was born at an early age and brought up by Wolves in the heart of The Black Country. After surviving the wilds of school in downtown Coseley, failing his A levels in a-bit-posher Sedgley, and disappointing his Dad by working in the family business in Brierley Hill, he eventually settled down with his gorgeous wife and two amazing kids on the outskirts of Wolverhampton. With absolutely zero writing experience or talent, Hadley decided to have a crack at writing a funny book after finding out that you don’t really need to be any good at writing to be a writer as Amazon will publish anything. Hadley’s first foray (nice word) into writing is his first and probably only book, Grumpy Middle-Aged Dad – Adventures in Orlando. In this book, Hadley (why am I writing this like I don’t know myself? Everybody knows this is being written by me) blogs his way around the best-known sites of Orlando, including all of Mr Disney’s finest Psycho Parks and a few trips to see Mr Universal. At the end of the day, Hadley’s having a go so fair play. It’s better than not bothering (but not much) and goes to show what can be achieved with almost no talent, lots of spare time, a good laptop and an abundance of alcohol.
