The hilarious true-life tale of one man's journey from
self-confessed planet-killing lad to eco-friendly, green-crusader
Dad set against the backdrop of Cool Britannia, Blair's Britain and
the rise of the green movement. Back in the nineties, Loaded
journalist, Pete May was your normal twenty-something male: a
football mad, beer guzzling, Dr Who watching lad's lad, quite happy
surrounding himself with countless pizza boxes, beer cans and other
environmentally unfriendly consumer items. Recycling to Pete was a
debate about whether he should turn his socks inside out and reuse
them. Then one day, out of nowhere, along came eco bunny Nicola - a
greener than green environmental activist. Could two people so
different really fall for each other? Would Pete ever change his
ways and sign up to the green lifestyle of composting loos,
freezing cold houses, multiple jumper wearing, chicken rearing,
recycling, cycling, energy saving and general self-sufficiency?
This is the charming and funny true-life tale of one man's struggle
to grapple with the good life, go green and get the girl.
West Ham's final season at the Boleyn Ground was always going to be
memorable. It featured a new manager in Slaven Bilic, the arrival
of a French magician called Dimitri Payet and away wins at Arsenal,
Liverpool and Man City - not to mention an unexpected tilt at the
top four and an epic last game at the Boleyn against Man United.But
a new beginning is around the corner and, as he and his fellow
Hammers prepare to swap the gritty East End streets of E13 for the
shiny shopping centres of Stratford, lifelong supporter Pete May
reflects on the special place the Boleyn Ground has occupied in the
hearts of generations of Irons fans.Whether it's the infamous
chants of the Bobby Moore Stand, the pre-match fry-ups at Ken's
Cafe or the joys of sticky carpets, rubbish ale and blokes singing
on pool tables in the pubs around Upton Park, Pete's memories are
sure to resonate with legions of the claret-and-blue army as they
say farewell to the Boleyn and enter a new era at the London
Stadium.
