Roger Evans now has enough years behind him, full of memorable experiences and adventures, to be able to tell a tale or two. 'Backalong in Somerset' is filled with stories gathered over the years; humourous yarns based on conversations at the public bar when the drink has been in and everyone becomes an expert. 'Backalong in Somerset tells tales of exploding prawns and exploding toilets, runaway horses and flying pandas, carnival chaos and funerals to make you smile. Imagine the horror of the following scene: 'Jimmy viewed his van in total disbelief - all doors were safely locked, engine still running, and parked on double yellow lines under the stewardship of a demented Jack Russell. His spare set of keys was back at his house. All he could do was run home as fast as he could, pick up the keys and get back to the van, hoping that the traffic wardens and the police had not yet swung into action, and that the dog had not yet worked out how to use the gears.'
