Book excerpt: An irreverent, irrepressible, laugh-out-loud read about life and love, family and friends, Oh To Be A Marching Girl is a collection of Frances's best columns from the Sunday Mail.Frances spent much of her childhood talking her mother into allowing her to sign up for classes, courses, sports, none of which she managed to complete. As well as Oh to be a marching girl, her repertoire at that time included I want to be an actress, I have to be a painter and I'll die if I'm not a gymnast. Luckily, she did none of these things, but instead became a writer-one who has a rare knack of truly communicating with readers.Women, men, relationships, family, work, politicians and celebrities are all explored and, whatever the topic, readers will find something of themselves-and each other-in every chapter.Most of all, Oh To Be A Marching Girl reminds us that while laughing at other people is always fun, laughing at ourselves is much, much better.
