A nice change 16 Dec 2011
Format:Hardcover
I like reading about more bizarre news stories so decided to give this book a go.
The stories are divided into categories which I thought was nice and it makes it easier to dip into and read the sort of stories you prefer.
I'd recommend the book as it's quite amusing and definitely makes a change from the usual depressing news!
It would also make a great gift. :)

By zja
Format:Hardcover
I came across this hilarious loo book via a review in the Evening Standard. They described it as a heavenly collection of cuts and headlines from the regional press, and I have not been disappointed!

Highlights include:
- RAIDERS LEAVE INCONTINENCE PADS ON LORRY (Nottingham Post)
- PSYCHIC SHOW CANCELLED DUE TO UNFORESEEN CIRCUMSTANCES (Plymouth Herald)
- UNGRATEFUL COW SNUBS RESCUERS (Hastings & St Leonards Observer)

The beautiful little hardback is made up of headlines, full articles, and images of billboards.

The book has even inspired a facebook page and a twitter account providing recent funny local headlines daily.

A British humour gem. Highly recommend!

Waste of money 23 Jan 2012
Format:Hardcover
Don't waste your time with this book, it's truly awful. Wanted it after it was much talked up on Radio 2, but on receipt found it's got about 3 mildly amusing stories in it and the rest is rubbish. Devised, researched and written in about 10 minutes purely to rip people off.
