Synopsis

Alex has eighteen days until he finds out if he got into Arts Law, a week in Caloundra to sleep, swim and watch the cricket, and a mother with a keen interest in his sex life.

When this unlikely pair meet the results are both hilarious and heartwarming.

And for both of them it means that things will never be the same after January.
