Book Description
The new book from the ever popular Deric Longden
Product Description
Deric's gentle tales of life in Huddersfield with his wife Aileen and their menagerie of playful cats have won him thousands of loyal fans. And after a few years break Deric returns with the latest, and eagerly awaited, instalment of his memoirs.
Deric is getting on a bit now and so are his cats. Life chez-Longden has adjusted to a slower pace, but everyday is still full of opportunities for the sort of mischief, mishaps and adventures that come with sharing your house and life with a troop of small cats with big personalities.
Paws in the Proceedings has all of Deric's trademark charm, homespun wisdom and gentle wit. His remarkable eye for the humorous detail and the keen observation are very much in evidence, and this is another comic gem that will delight Deric's loyal fans and bring him to a bigger audience than ever before.

I've read Deric's other books and thoroughly enjoyed them, so I wasn't expecting this one to be any different. It wasn't!
Back after a fairly long illness, Deric is on top form and I recommend this book to anyone wanting a laugh. This book is a laugh a minute and if you're owned by cats yourself, you'll relate to it even more!
More books please, Deric!

It is entirely the fault of Mr Longden that my wife has ended up with 6 cats! Talk about waiting to be 'set on'. They kept turning up week after week - word obviously got around that we had opened up our home to any cat who needed a place to kip for the night. I read one of my wife's CAT books out of desparation and found Deric Longden! Paws in th proceedings is wonderfully funny and I am delighted that there is another man out there with the same thought processes and sense of humour as myself. I hate cats and you can tell this by the way they congregate around me. I even have to sleep with one on my head. deric's book gives me a bit of empathy as well as a good laugh. I am sure my Siamese sits on my lap and smirks

I have been a fan of Deric's for sometime now and have read all his books and got both dvd's.
He never fails to make me laugh and as a cat owner..i know exactly where he is coming from.
Anyone who has never read one of his books does'nt know what their are missing.
Hope there will be more to come.As always a delightful read.
Well done Deric x

read the cat that came in from the cold and with having two cats it made me laugh out loud because I could visualise my cats doing many of the antics written in the book.
