Rob Temple is a journalist and founder of the Very British Problems Twitter, Instagram and TikTok accounts, which together have 5 million followers. Originally from Peterborough, he moved from south London to the countryside to provide more storage space for his rapidly expanding collection of inedible hot sauces and to be alone with his thought(s).
'Hilarious' Daily Express
There's an epidemic sweeping the nation
Symptoms include:
*Acute embarrassment at the mere notion of 'making a fuss'
*Extreme awkwardness when faced with any social greeting beyond a brisk handshake
*An unhealthy preoccupation with meteorology
Doctors have also reported several cases of unnecessary apologising and an obsessive interest in correct queuing etiquette. If you have experienced any of these symptoms, you may be suffering from VERY BRITISH PROBLEMS.
VERY BRITISH PROBLEMS are highly contagious. There is no known cure.
Rob Temple's tea-spillingly funny book, inspired by the incredible @soverybritish Twitter phenomenon, reveals all the ways in which we are a nation of socially awkward but well-meaning oddballs, struggling to make it through every day without saying sorry to an inanimate object. Take comfort in misfortunes of others. You are not alone.
Now updated with more mildly amusing weather-based jokes.
