bought this in an islington bookshop. I was thinking of buying a comedy, and saw the tv humourist alan davies walking around. As i don't particularly find him funny, but think his opposite number pundit (otis lee crenshaw) is, i set off to find this book. Not only is it funny it's also brilliant and insightful. The only book i've seen on a par with this for humour is 'how to be a complete bastard' by adrian edmonson, but to be fair this doesn't have the insight. Like ocsar wilde without the ego set to country and western music. After i've read it, i'll pass it onto my dad for his birthday present. Last word... quite good.

Very very funny!

This book is hilarious. I read it on my subway trips to work in SOHO each morning. People on the number 4 train kept looking at me cause I kept busting out in laughter. It's probably the funniest book I ever read.
