★★★★ "This is an extraordinary hour of searing honestly, huge laughs and fascinating characters" The Scotsman

"Pam Ford is a force of nature. And, as we learn aforce of nurture. She works when not making rooms rock with laughter as an activity co-ordinator in a care home, and her warm, wonderful hour is filled with fascinating characters sharing the kind of incredibe life stories you only discover when giving people time and respect.  There are so many layers to this sweet-n-sour Pavola of a show, and each one is moreish. We are, as a room, entertained, delighted amazed and more than a little in love with this exurburant Ozzie.  So when she takes us through lock-lown and loss, food-banks and debts, the words carry an emotional punch"
