Customer Reviews

BEST XMAS PRESENT EVER!
I bought this for myself being intrigued by the title and it was compulsive reading. Everything I never knew that I wanted to know but I now know that I really wanted to know these things!

My evenings at the pub are MUCH more entertaining - and I have now bought three copies for Xmas presents for my mates.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Fascinating - and very funny too!
I got this the other day and I haven't been able to put it down. I thoroughly recommend it to anyone with any curiosity who's also got a good sense of (adult) humour
