Bilbury Pudding, the seventh in The Young Country Doctor series, is a collection of stories, reminiscences, essays and anecdotes about life in the English village of Bilbury in North Devon. All the well-loved characters are here: the Doc and Patsy, Thumper Robinson, Patchy Fogg, Peter Marshall and Frank and Gilly at the Duck and Puddle public house. But there are many new faces too. Some of the stories are poignant, some contain a message or two and some are just old-fashioned funny. There are the usual wonderful descriptions of the Devon countryside and, as a bonus, Bilbury Pudding contains more than a little advice on life from Dr Brownlow, Patchy, Thumper and the Doc. Finally, there is a pen portrait of the Doc himself - written, in his own inimitable style, by Thumper Robinson. Vernon Coleman, the author of Bilbury Pudding, is a qualified doctor as well as a bestselling author. He has written over 100 books which have been translated into 24 languages and sold in over 50 countries. His books have sold over two million hardback and paperback copies in the UK alone. Dr Coleman has written columns and articles for many of the world's leading newspapers and magazines and has broadcast regularly on TV and radio.
