“Laurence’s
book is full of good things. I’m impressed
by what was important in the lives of all those he met while hitching
the
length of Britain, namely family, friends and the quality of life, not
possessions or money. Makes me feel really optimistic about ordinary
people.”

“Thank
you for sending two copies of ‘On Chance Road’. It’s brilliant. Please
would you
send two more copies.”
- Leonard Hurd, Subud Publications International
“As in
‘Off-the-Wall’ the story has proved to be riveting. I chuckle when I
relate to
recognizable situations. It is part of what makes your book so
‘unputdownable’.”

“He charts many intriguing
encounters, telling stories
of Roman soldiers, Cornish pirates, blue comedians, bricklayers and
managing
directors. The people he met fill this book with humorous, poignant and
bizarre
tales that will have you laughing and crying.”
- Cornwall Life
“Beneath the fascinating,
day-to-day account of his
meetings and conversations – as well as his acute observations on
place,
history, geography and the weather – lies the sub-text and where the
book
really takes off for me. Laurence begins to become more involved in,
and
intrigued by, chance and connections, coincidence and synchronicity –
and the
wealth of serendipitous experiences that he interprets en route as
signs and
guidance.”
