"Just ask. Just for a few minutes. What does Love really mean? Not what Hollywood says. Not what the Good Book says. Not what TV and advertising and magazines say. Answer yourself. Look deeply. What does it really mean? Just ask. Just once. Really ask. Your life will never be the same again." - Swifty Flame-Anderson
One fine evening when he was busily minding his own business, Pete Hughes fatefully encountered our stories' main hero Walter the Sofa Elf, famed for being the singer of the Happy Cow song amongst others. With their hearts on their sleeves, Walter and his ever-loyal singing partner Gary adventure their way through the ups and downs of life and love. Along the way they meet characters both mysterious and strangely familiar.
Come with us into a world of soul-touching love and laughter and maybe, just maybe, you will meet yourself somewhere on the path.
