This book is another collection of Annie Tempest’s expertly-observed cartoons humorously depicting the archetypical English upper-class, following spirited traditionalists Dicky and Daffy Tottering, who reside in their lavish yet dilapidating ancestral home, Tottering Hall, together with their adored and exceedingly-spoilt dogs, affectionately named Slobber and Scribble.

Daffy is a redoubtable and, these days, lamentably-dying breed, frequently referred to as a ‘Country Lady’, while Dicky just lives in another era altogether. Follow this endearing couple as they attempt to navigate an increasingly-modernised world with their mischievous pooches, both of whom hold a firm place in their owners' affections, allowing them to wreak all kinds of havoc with minimal consequences.

Annie Tempest’s ability to comically depict the highs and lows of dog ownership is second to none — and stands as a heart-warming reminder
