Five years of Raelene Hall's "Lighter Side of Life on the Land" columns in the Midwest Times are gathered here in one hilarious collection that will please old fans and make new ones. With a foreword by Ted Egan.

"Raelene's witty, light-hearted look at everyday situations affecting everyday women gives you a smile and sends you on your way, knowing that whatever your are experiencing that day, chances are someone else is experiencing it too. Then the otherwise annoying little things of life can become the colour of your day, if you, like Raelene, can look on with humour." - Merelyn Carter of the award-winning Carter & Carter - including Golden Guitar for Duo of the Year, Tamworth's Country Duo of the Year (2007).

"Sharp, lively, and above all, hilarious. Raelene's writing gives a clever spin on life as an Australian woman on an outback station. A must-have book for your country collection." - Rachael Treasure, ex-jillaroo and author of Jillaroo (2002), The Stockmen (2004), The Roustabout (2007).
