Michael Terence Publishing Announce the Release of At The Time: Tales from a Village Offy, by Mike Stenson
Michael Terence Publishing is excited to announce the release of At The Time: Tales from a village Offy, a humorous memoir, by Mike Stenson.
Thame, United Kingdom, November 13, 2019 --(PR.com)-- About At The Time: Tales from a village Offy
Everyone should have the opportunity to "Smile at a Fruitcake" every day and over the 28 years spent establishing a small village "Booze Shop" that quickly became known locally as THE OFFY in the village of Holt in North Wales, the author became the more than grateful recipient of many such occasions.
Occasions of exploding Hedgehog crisps – Sarcastic motorway police officers – Lifelike plastic parrots – Barred for being plastered – Disbelieving Magistrates – Old ladies and school kids – Doctor’s orders – Shop fittings from a chicken shed – “Don’t I look eighteen!” – Shin bruising wheel braces – Never eat yellow snow - “It’s how much!” and many more.
Occasions that not only encouraged a thousand smiles over those 28 years but also defined a time when "Corner Shops" were not only the hub of the community but a source of true friendship and humour.
Occasions that are not merely being lost to the faceless supermarkets of today, but occasions that are quickly being denied to our children’s children, and At The Time is a collection of humorous memories dedicated to those times when customers became friends and "Fruitcakes" seemingly came in abundance.
This work is available in multiple formats worldwide.

About the Author
Born in Birmingham, England, during the summer of 1941 Mike Stenson began writing at the age of five and not as a direct result of anything even resembling intelligence, but at the insistence of the Local Education Authority.
In 1968 Mike upped sticks and "migrated" to North Wales as the Works Manager of a plastic extrusion/injection moulding company relocating from the Black Country.
1974 not only saw the arrival of ‘Junior’ Stenson but also Mike’s initiation into the stumbling world of self-employment. Self-employment that would lead him to the village of Holt in North Wales to establish Stensons - their first and only independent off licence - and the source of the true tales outlined in this volume of At The Time.
