Small Town Dreams: A tale of love, life, travel and football

SMALL TOWN DREAMS
A tale of love, life, travel and football
by J.F. Cumming

A humorous tale following a football fanatic and his long-suffering girlfriend as they travel around the world, spending an unexpected redundancy payment in Thailand, Hong Kong, China, Australia, Easter Island, Chile and America.

Growing up in the small English town of High Wycombe wasn’t overly glamorous. James spent his youth dreaming of two things – travelling the world and, more ambitiously, seeing his lowly local football team, Wycombe Wanderers, experience a glorious FA Cup run.

As the reality of adulthood took hold, neither dream looked any closer to reality… then came a redundancy for James and a First Round draw at home against Harrow Borough for the Wanderers.

SMALL TOWN DREAMS follows the events of the next six months. Six extraordinary months in a very ordinary life.

From River Island to Easter Island. From High Wycombe to Hong Kong. From old York to New York. From Millwall to the Great Wall. From Harrow Borough to Sydney Harbour. And for one unknown footballer – from unemployed zero to Ceefax hero.

A boy. A girl. A trip of a lifetime.
Around the world in an FA Cup daze.
