About this episode

She brings along a number of objects that inspired her book, including a pink bucket, a Land Rover called Bessie and some questionable seafood. Emma reminisces about many memorable incidents, concluding that camping in the 1970s was essentially National Service for children. #PenguinPodcast<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
