Author Description

Product Description Life’s a Bag of Laughs is a journey through the colourfully eventful and amusing life of Alli Rogers and how she overcomes and survives the many pitfalls that life can present. Written with irony and humour throughout, the book explores some of Rogers’ often hilarious and unbelievable ups and downs. Described through many vivid anecdotes is Rogers’ childhood as the daughter of a diplomat, spent in numerous foreign countries, followed by university and her career in banking. With warm hearted witty observation, and self deprecating humour, Rogers also explores subjects like the perils of holidays and air travel, shopping, pets, property, music, fashion trends, adapting to country life and the challenges of children. By Rogers’ own admission, the last fifty years have been a bit crazy. But despite everything that has been thrown at her, she has come out smiling and embraces the ability to laugh at herself and the absurdities of life. About the Author Alli Rogers, the youngest of four girls, was born in Singapore in 1962 and spent many years living abroad, courtesy of her father's job in the Foreign Office. After completing her A-Levels, she went to Nottingham University to take an American Studies degree and then joined a prominent bank’s graduate training program. She stayed in banking for ten years before having her three children. Alli later went on to work as a gardener before running a bed and breakfast in the Midlands with her husband. This is her first published book and she now divides her time writing with being a domestic goddess.
