Tidy Rawlins was blessed with the kind of looks that got her noticed in a crowded room. She saw herself in a fancy office with a boss who called her "his girl" and bought her chocolates for her birthday. But the war with Germany brought her face to face with reality when she was sent to Chadderton near Manchester to build Lancaster bombers. The work was noisy and dirty but Tidy had a dream and she was an entrepreneurial girl. The near-by airbase and parachute school gave her opportunities to supplement her wages and start, what was to become, a very lucrative business.
A round little man, Sergeant Ernest Neville DSM, an ex tank driver, was adrift in the post-war world of 1956. A man bobbing on the surface of life, slowly drowning in misery. His future looked bleak but thanks to Tidy and the strange chemistry they discover between them his life takes a series of surprising turns that brings two unlikely soul mates into close partnership. And, eventually, love.
But, like tourists on a bus, their destinations are different. Tidy tries to rekindle the love she had had with an American pilot in 1944 and goes to America to be with him, leaving a distraught Ernie to pursue a new life. Tidy flees America after only two weeks, chased out by the hatred and prejudice she meets every day. Back in Manchester at the head of her very lucrative and growing business empire she finally finds love in the arms of a loving friend. Ernie rebuilds his life far from Manchester and in the process finds his love and his totally unexpected destiny. He is a man more to the manor born than he ever imagined.
