The delightfully comic account of a British couple and their imported cats starting over in a new country continues in Bucket to Greece Volume 3. Victor and Marigold really feel the heat of May when the ever precarious water supply runs dry, and Victor suffers self-doubt over his burgeoning mastery of the Greek language. No longer cheffing at the local taverna, Victor keeps busy in the kitchen at home, experimenting with the glut of garden courgettes.

Landing a part-time job as a tour guide to Ancient Olympia offers an opportunity to pontificate to a captive audience. Victor is forced to put his foot down when Marigold demands a swimming pool and air conditioning, convincing her they pose hygiene risks. Fortunately the arrival of an unexpected visitor delights and distracts Marigold, until catastrophe strikes when a moron takes a pot shot at her beloved feline, Catastrophe.

With marriage on his mind, Barry plans a permanent move to Greece and joins Victor in an early-morning snail hunt, leading to the great bucket breakout. A now sober Guzim secures employment on the coast with a crew that rumour soon has it are homicidal bandits. Spiros, smitten with the fragrant Filipino caregiver he employs to live-in with his infirm uncle, persuades Victor to help him poach some potential house buyers from under the despised Harold's nose.

Needing a pseudonym to avoid embarrassing his wife after deciding to pen a book about moving from Manchester to Greece, the author dusted off his original name of V. D. Bucket, the name he was stuck with after being abandoned in a bucket as a baby. He is the author of the Bucket to Greece series.

David Vickery is a network BBC TV announcer in the UK, with a track record in program narrations for Discovery, AETN, National Geographic, Smithsonian, and other channels. He trained as an actor at the prestigious Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama but has latterly discovered a love for golf croquet. It's a very competitive sport and brings out the er . . . best in him! David daily ponders whether to again adopt a cat.
