`When a family goes abroad it will settle down only if the mother is contented,` writes Christine Warren Tutte in this charming memoir about life at St Catherine`s British Embassy School in Athens.
Christine writes with a fresh, observant pen and a sharp, affectionate memory for people and for the feel, looks and smells of places, flowers, clothes, foods.
As I can testify from personal experience, she was as adept at managing the Ambassadors and diplomats as she was at handling the parents and children.
