I write with humour and heartbreaking poignancy about the challenges of parenting, losing my mother (to death, that is – we didn’t get separated in a shop) and the drug hell that led to me nearly dying in the arms of a comedy legend. There’s also a bit about arguing with my wife, getting instructions on edginess from Louis Theroux, going on Bake Off and much more that you didn’t ask for but definitely need.For all that, plus hours of bonus waffle and original music, why not download the audiobook, too?Phew! I think we both need a shower after that. Take care – I love you, byeee!
