A seriously amusing collection of short stories based on the escapades of mayors in European cities and towns as personally experienced by the author. The thirteen stories vary between the informative, pleasurable and occasionally tragic elements of life. They extol the dignity of the role as upheld by the vast majority of post holders but also refer to the plethora of red tape associated with local administration and the increase in devious and corrupt practices regrettably found in modern society. All the characters and situations described are essentially true. Any relationship to fictitious people or imaginary happenings is coincidental. Only the names have been, changed to protect the innocent, or in a number of cases, the guilty.
