This is an autobiography with a difference - as only Sandi Toksvig can tell it. BETWEEN THE STOPS is a sort of a memoir, my sort. It's about a bus trip really, because it's my view from the Number 12 bus (mostly top deck, the seat at the front on the right), a double-decker that plies its way from Dulwich, in South East London where I was. Between the Stops on a London bus with Sandi Toksvig – well if this is not just the most fun I’ve had on a bus journey I don’t know what is. I thought I would read some of it on a bus since it’s set on one. Although I’m not in London, I thought it was the right thing to do. So, I started reading it and actually missed my stop!
