Remember Ruth Taylor who taught at TREVERTON, RUSTENBURG and PINEHURST?

- Share the miracle of baby Sammy, a diminutive Xhosa baby dying of malnutrition who survived because he was hidden by the Taylor family during the cruel Apartheid era.

- Travel to the Holy Land where Ruth floats in the Dead Sea and flees amorous bogus guides.
- Share joyous, nostalgic & heart stopping moments ...
An encounter with Neil Armstrong and his crew after their 1969 moon landing. A black bear smacks its lips outside her tent. A deadly mamba slithers from under her bed. Supper at Buckingham palace, works in a London supermarket and is asked to be stripper in a biscuit factory, acts as an impromptu bridesmaid, flees a tsunami threat, acts as a Kenyan undertaker, falls in love with Thailand and is overjoyed to become an Auntie!
