Do you worry about the purpose of your life?
Do you wonder whether God exists?
Do you fancy another drink?
If your answer to any of those questions is 'yes', this is the book for you.
With the aid of jokes and apt quotations, Colin Barmby provides an uproarious and thought-provoking tour of subjects such as booze, sex, religion and work - also heading down less-travelled byways to look at topics like doggerel and footnotes.
Any reader who enjoys dry British humour and has an open-minded outlook on life and its daily tribulations will enjoy this book and take something from it.
Colin Barmby's witty look at life had me laughing out loud
