Diary of a Mummy Misfit

Happily, the cruel jibes of the pompous 'Meemies' are made more tolerable by the lasting and loyal friendship they strike up with the affluent Fenella & Josh.

Follow Libby's journey as she discovers the chasm between the Haves and the Have-Nots in her mad new world of school committees, designer handbags, bitching and botox.

With Fenella by her side, Libby is able to maintain her sanity. But what happens when the credit crunch bites, you're desperate for another baby and your Asian neighbour is trying to match-make you with her infatuated son?
