by Lucy Sweet (Author)
What would be on your Complete Misery Checklist? This is Jane Darling's...polyester tartan uniform; 'Hello My Name is Jane' badge; job in Edinburgh's Tourist Office during the festival; and a ginger whinger colleague who is out to get her. A crap job, manky flat, and eight hours a day filled with questions like 'How long is the Royal Mile?' - that's what Jane Darling has to look forward to. Every day. It's a grim prospect. Some people would think it was complete lunacy to travel halfway across the country just to reunite a man with his mislaid diary. But when you consider Jane's alternatives, and you look at his photograph...you'd pack your bags too.
