Adrian Mole has entered early middle age and is now 'the same age as Jesus was when he died' (33). Father to the grammatically challenged Glenn, and William, who takes a 'Big Boy Arouser' condom to nursery school as his innocent contribution to a hot air balloon project, Adrian is a single parent who has an on/off relationship with his housing officer, Pamela Pigg. Will she help him to move from the notorious Gaitskell estate before William joins the Mad Frankie Fraser fan club? In the meantime, Adrian continues to be scandalised by his irresponsible parents who are conducting a matrimonial square-dance with the Braithwaites - the parents of the beautiful but unobtainable Pandora, who is ruthlessly pursuing her ambition to be New Labour's first woman PM - and to confide in his diary. His current worries include: indestructible head-lice; his raging jealousy when his accomplished half-brother Brett arrives on his doorstep; moral decline in The Archers; his desperate attachment to two therapists; his mild addiction to Starburst (formerly Opal Fruits); a small earthquake in Leicester; and, perhaps most significantly, the dawn of a new millennium.©2009 WF Howes Ltd Family Life Genre Fiction Literature & Fiction Women's Fiction Fiction Funny Witty Natural Disaster Comedy

Not as good as the the other Mole diaries, and shorter in length compared to the other books around this time, but well worth a listen. The plot is ok, but nowhere near as in depth as the other books, which is where I think I was very slightly disappointed.

I have always held these books amongst my favourite ones to listen to again and again, but this one I did enjoy, but not enough to listen again, as a Mole fan that is the only reason it dropped a star.
