#tractor4graham is a humorous diary exploring the relationship between a husband and wife over a two month period. It relays tales of how the male mind works and the kind of man-nonsense or man-logic women put up with each day.

The diary takes a comical look at the events of everyday life through the eyes of a woman. Whether it is going to the vets, going to the supermarket, meeting the 'aggressive OAP' or the 'stressed out mummy' - it's all ammunition to this woman.

She is convinced that her husband is trying to kill her, first through the use of poison and then moving on to other means. This provides a comical thread running through the book as he fails in his attempts. It is witty, believable and the reader will be able to relate to the characters and the everyday situations that they find themselves in.

The husband and wife engage in totally pointless conversations, such as the wife buying a new £1 loo brush from the supermarket and the husband quizzing her for ten minutes on whether it was a necessary purchase. The husband, of course, will buy a new car at the drop of a hat.

The husband is a hoarder and the wife has to throw out his favourite pillow without him noticing and then try to keep up the pretence that he is still sleeping with his pillow. 'Pillowgate' will have female readers howling with laughter.
