Amidst the
decaying splendor of
Tottering Hall in the county of Pimmshire, Lord and Lady
Tottering live the
archetypal country life. Daffy
Tottering drinks gin, diets permanently, and frets about her
descending bosom, while her husband Dicky lives for hunting, shooting, and fishing. Together with their slightly politically incorrect political entourage, Daffy and Dicky represent a sort of quintessentially English country lifestyle. Thus it is no wonder that these endearing characters have become stars of
Country Life magazine, and their creator, award-winning cartoonist Annie Tempest is feted as one of Britain’s most accomplished illustrators.
Lady Tottering's Journal is an extensively illustrated desk diary for everyone to use and to treasure. The 75 full-color spreads are beautifully illustrated by Annie Tempest in her own inimitable style, and filled with witty notes and Daffy's own diary entries.
