John Wyatt grew up in the tiny village of Hethe, near Bicester, Oxfordshire. "Looking Back" tells the chaotic saga of how he and his father finally managed to get hold of a giant galvanised bucket for a new, luxurious outside lavatory in the early years of the 20th century, much of it in North Oxfordshire dialect. Based around Hethe Manor Farm, several of John's family and friends were characters in Lark Rise to Candleford, and this rural tale will delight fans of Flora Thompson's classic story of village life.
