![]() The people he meets, the difficulties, the triumphs. ![]() This book is the story of Tony's adventures through that incredible month. 'I hereby bet Tony Hawks the sum of One Hundred Pounds that he cannot hitch-hike around the circumference of Ireland with a fridge within one calendar month'. The next morning there is a note by the bed. It is, he insists, a 'magical place', so magical in fact, that a man could even get a lift with a fridge. Until one night, heavy with drink, he finds himself arguing about Ireland with a friend. Two years pass but the fridge incident haunts our author.

Whilst in Ireland for an International Song Competition, Tony Hawks was amazed to see a hitch-hiker, trying to thumb a lift, but with a fridge. ![]()
