Product Description

Ah, the single life. The blind dates, the guiltless sleeping in the starfish position, the "table for one in a draught, please". In this book, Jeff Green offers practical advice on how to find love, or failing that how to pretend you've got a significant other half. For women: leave the fridge door open for no reason. For men: wash your towels. And if you've just been dumped, Jeff shows how you can reach "closure", otherwise known as uncompromising REVENGE. Green also includes great chat-up lines for the older lover - "Did you break a hip when you fell from heaven?"; beauty tips for dates - how to look 20 years younger? Stand further away; and things not to say on a first date - would you like to see my shrine to the others? If you're in a couple, this book will remind you why your own situation is - just about - worth tolerating. And if you're happily single, follow Jeff's advice and you're guaranteed to stay that way.

5.0 out of 5 stars comical genius, 27 Nov 2003
By Davina B (West Midlands United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The A-Z of Being Single: A Survival Guide to Dating and Mating (Paperback)
Jeff Green has done it again. This book is laugh out loud funny, if you thought the a - z of living together was funny this one is possibly even better. Jeff's chapter on 50 ways to leave your lover are hillarious. His style of humour is relevant to everyone and you can't help thinking 'thank God it isn't just me'. This book is a must read for anyone who likes comedy.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have book, 20 Jan 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The A-Z of Being Single: A Survival Guide to Dating and Mating (Paperback)
I could only bear to read two pages of 'The A-Z of Being Single'.. before being reduced to rolling on the floor with aching sides and trying to stop laughing long enough to breathe. If you only read one book this year this is THE ONE. No matter how bad your life is, ten minutes of this book will improve it.

4.0 out of 5 stars its funny cos its true!, 10 Jun 2004
By Yorkshire Pudding (Liverpool, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The A-Z of Being Single: A Survival Guide to Dating and Mating (Paperback)
if your single, or not even id recommend you get this because its just plain funny! you will find yourself reading through it nodding as you go along and then sniggering quite loudly! Jeff has poked fun at all the stupid things us singletons will do just to get by in life and come out on tops!

for example you know your single if you come home after a night out covered in assorted bruises, or your keys are still in the front door, and the front door is now in the living room!

the only shortfall is, well its a bit short! theres only so many letters in the alphabet but Jeffs managed to make the single A-Z the funniest i know buy now folks!
