About Living Upside Down

Inspired by a true story. Sue and Roger attempt to resolve family conflicts and improve their living standards by migrating with their two small children from England to the warmer Great Southern Land to become 'fair dinkum Aussies'. Set from the 1970s, buckle up for a bittersweet roller-coast ride as they encounter the British Australia House, a homicidal charter flight to Australia, an immigration hostel, and befriend true blue Aussies who are suspicious of 'ten pound poms' and anyone who whinges or drinks tea, rather than coffee or beer! Their adventure takes an unexpected right turn as they experience life in a Pacific Archipelago for a while. This is an inspirational, laugh-out-loud story of one small family's triumph over unbelievable odds. Their adventures and challenges of job satisfaction, fishing, family, cultural differences, and death is told with a self-deprecating humour - as Roger and Sue inherit the Aussie witticism.
