Opis

This is Volume 1 of the collected works of The Chimping Dandy. Author, Blogger, Humourist, Flashtronaut and lover of Pangolins ("But not in that way").

There are Seventy-Five stories representing nearly a year of irreverent writing, on such various themes as Polar Bears, Motorcycling, Lego, Physical Injuries to Myself, and The Paranormal ("WoOoOoOoOoOo"), which are guaranteed to make you laugh on the bus, or the train, or the aeroplane, or the toilet... Well, at least smile... Well, perhaps get people to ask whether you've got indigestion at least.

Almost all of the stories have a basis in truth, although a number have been edited to add some much needed pathos, bathos and custard. ("and for spelling... Mostly for spelling.")

Should you buy this book? Well of course you should, I went to the trouble of writing it, then publishing it on the Kindle, then reformatting it completely to be published as a real book that you can use for swatting flies or propping up a wonky table or dropping in the bath.

As a discerning reader, the least you can do is hit the 'Buy this truly splendid book' button. ("Your button may actually be named differently, but it should be around somewhere. Try the corners, they sometimes like to hide the button in the corners.")

It's not like you need the money... Well, you might need the money, but I need the money more, if I wasn't starving, I couldn't really call myself an artist could I? I have children, and they have mouths that need feeding. Not buying this book literally takes bread from my children's mouths, and they kind of like bread.
