On the Bright Side: The New Secret Diary of Hendrik Groen, 85 Years Old
Eighty-five-year-old Hendrik Groen is fed up to his false teeth with coffee mornings and bingo.
__________
Along with fellow members of the Old-But-Not-Dead Club, he embarks on a wild spree of octogenarian anarchy. But the home's director will not stand for any more drunken bar crawls, illicit fireworks or geriatric romance. The good name of the care home will not be disgraced.
But when Hendrik learns of a plan to close the home down he realises life outside it could be much worse. He and the gang must stop the closure before it's too late. Or drop dead trying . . .
