It's about humour, language, writing, film, houses, homes, time wasters, one loose tyre, you, me and all points in-between._____________________________________'Laugh-out-loud funny' Independent'A delight' Jonathan Raban, Times Literary Supplement 'A perfect holiday dipper' Scotsman'An Alan Bennett-style diary' Daily Telegraph
