When James McElroy read Bibi Saunders' advert for a lodger, he pictures a glamorous landlady with whom he will have a pleasant, bantering relationship. In fact Bibi is in her seventies, once beautiful, now wise, and full of joie de vivre. Soon she inveigles the diffident James into driving her on a trip across Britain in her vintage car, visiting her family. As they travel, Bibi tells her story.

Work Description
When James McElroy saw the ad for a lodger with 'Bibi Sanders' in a smart Edinburgh street, he pictured a glamorous young landlady with whom he would form a meaningful and deep relationship. But Bibi's in her seventies. She's led a full life, including marriage to the domineering and difficult Callum, now deceased, and raised six children. She's not sure what to make of James and suspects - rightly - a troubling secret in his past. When Bibi sets out to re-visit the past for the final time via a tour of Britain in her rather unexpected Volvo sports car, James decides to go with her. It's a journey full of surprises and revelations which will change them both.
