Product Description
Book Description
Once upon a time there was the original (but much tinier) The Meaning of Liff. Now we are pleased to present a book that is truly larger than Liff, The Deeper Meaning of Liff. This volume represents the classic dictionary of words for which no words exist – completely revised, modernized and generally plumped up. Twice as many definitions.* Lavishly illustrated. Crammed with bottom jokes. And here’s a taster . . .

Berrilillock (n.) An unknown workmate who writes "All the best" on your leaving card.
Bodmin (n.) The discrepancy between the amount pooled and the amount needed when a large group of people try to pay a bill together after a meal.
Grimbister (n.) Large body of cars on a motorway all travelling at exactly the speed limit because one of them is a police car.
Noak Hoak (n.) A driver who indicates left and then turns right.
Scrabster (n.) One of those dogs which has it off on your leg during tea.
Skoonspruit (n.) The tiny garden-sprinkler thing your mouth does sometimes for no apparent reason.

What the press said about The Meaning of Liff:

‘Brilliant’ The Times

‘Brilliant’ The Sunday Times

‘Small’ Chesthunt and Waltham Telegraph

*Well, nearly twice as many.

Synopsis
