A hilarious look at the evolution of a nation, from the bestselling author of Why I Love My Mum
Popular illustrator Rob Stears looks at the habits of the Irish culture, and portrays the ways we’ve changed since the ‘old days’ – when coffee drinking was a spoon of instant, directions were a magical mystery tour, and age 18 was a reasonable time to move out of the family home. From politics to entertainment, from food and drink to trends and hobbies, In My Day also celebrates those things that remain the same through time – such as our steadfast belief in the magical healing qualities of 7Up!
