Ralph Morris' horizons are broader than his modest upbringing on the coast of North East Lincolnshire might suggest. He combines the thrill of visiting new places and cultures with his love of people watching, a hobby which gives both him and his family much entertainment.
Ralph is a nervous tourist, however, prey to anxiety. Lamenting his lack of ability in both navigation and languages, he is always amazed to discover he has arrived at his correct destination, with the appropriate people and all belongings intact.
Financially astute, Ralph has striven tirelessly to enjoy travel on a budget. He strongly denies being mean! As his devoted and occasionally long-suffering wife readily admits, without Ralph's 'careful' management, a place in the sun would have remained a dream.
