Behind a thin veneer of respectability, life in a small English village is not all it may seem. Through the eyes of Chumleigh the cat, the rural goings on are recorded in this funny and poignant diary, with an element of adult humour. From a cats perspective, Chumleigh tells all about life in his house and the antics of his neighbours. From domestic disharmony to a cannabis farm in next doors garden shed, he sees it all and shares it all in his diary. This is a cat who enjoys the finer elements of feline existence like tuna, sleeping in the warm and cat treats. But life doesnt always pan out the way he would like. Supported by a rich cast of locals, as odd and individualistic as still found in many small villages, Chumleigh charts a year in his life. Traumatic visits to the vet, turf wars with the local ginger tom and a desire to eliminate a neighbours yappy dog are all set down with great humour and insight. If youve ever lived in a village or owned a cat, this will make you laugh. If youve never lived in a village and never owned a cat, this will be a wonderful insight into what you have been missing. The Secret Diary of Chumleigh the Cat is a year in the life of a cat who never ceases to be amazed at just what goes on around him!

Paul Lawrence (63) is a motor sport journalist by profession, specialising in UK racing and rallying. He has written half a dozen books on the subject. Many weekends are spent reporting and photographing events all over the UK, usually in the company of his teenage son Ben. He is also a director of TFM Publishing Ltd and splits his time between the two activities.

Paul is married to Nikki and they live in a converted barn in a Shropshire village. Any remaining free time is spent walking in the hills of the Welsh border region and watching wildlife.

Chumleigh is a diversion into fiction, which started as a COVID lockdown project. It is an observation based on many years of having cats and living in small English villages. Close friends might even suggest that Chumleigh is a feline embodiment of the author!
