Old Regret follows 11 year old Jed Brown from his troubled life in Swan Hill to a farm in Gippsland where his Uncle trains horses and leads trail rides. Jed learns to ride and helps out on the farm. It's not all fun and games; Jed's main tasks are to pick up manure and clean gear. However, there are wild brumbies in the State Forest adjoining the farm, including a young stallion Jed names 'Regret' after the stallion from the Banjo Patterson poem The man from Snowy River. There are new friends, accidents and incidents, rules broken, and respect gained.

How do you get rid of unwanted guests? What do you do if there's a racket in the quiet carriage? How should you eat peas, and behave in queues? How to behave, like how to punctuate, is an aspect of life that many are no longer taught - and getting it wrong is the stuff of comedy at best and humiliation at worst. Thankfully, Sandi Toksvig has come to the rescue with her entertaining guide to modern manners,with tips on what to do whether you're talking to a bore, or forgot their name in the first place. (Just call them 'darling'.) The award-winning Radio 4 broadcaster and writer offers guidance on the social pitfalls of every phase of life, from christenings to condolence letters. With characteristic wit and perceptiveness, and revealing the trickiest of her encounters along the way, she highlights decency rather than convention and provides an essential guide to twenty-first century behaviour. Now this down-to-earth, hilarious guide is available in perfect pocket-sized paperback size.
