FREE SHIPPING for a limited time Faced with the loss of their means of income, Martin and Lee Keats jump at an opportunity to go to a small South Pacific island to do a little charity work and exploring.

It should also strike a chord with those who have suffered a sudden change of fortune, not to mention those who simply appreciate a good laugh.
