Product Description
Whilst in Ireland for an International Song Competition, Tony Hawks was amazed to see a hitch-hiker trying to thumb a lift, but with a fridge. This seemed amazingly optimistic - his Irish friends, however, thought nothing of it at all. 'I had clearly arrived in a country', writes Tony, 'where the qualification for 'eccentric' involved a great deal more than that to which I had become used'. Years pass. . . but the fridge incident haunts our author. Until one night, heavy with drink, he finds himself arguing about Ireland with a friend. It is, he insists, 'a magical place', so magical in fact, that a man could even get a lift with a fridge. The next morning there is a note by his bed. 'I hereby bet Tony Hawks the sum of One Hundred Pounds that he cannot hitch around the circumference of Ireland with a fridge within one calendar month. ' The document was signed. The bet was made. This book is the story of Tony's adventures through that incredible month. The people he meets, the difficulties, the triumphs, The Fridge.
