Review:
'A loaf out loud read ... It's a pun on toast innit' --Karl Pilkington
'Shaun Keaveny has taken raw facts, put them through the blender of his whimsy and emerged with an hilarious gazpacho' --Phill Jupitus
'This should be in every loo for the title alone. Most BBC tie-ins suck like a sucker fish with a Dyson, but this ragbag of dubious claims from BBC 6Music's 'Toast the Nation' is worth a log or two... as a leftfield sort of travel guide to the UK, this is fun.' --Time Out `Best Loo Reads'

Book Description Paperback. Condition: Very Good. No matter where you live, there are always reasons to be gosh-darn proud of it. For instance, did you know that: Clitheroe has the largest pigeons in the UK? Mick Jagger and Keith Richards first agreed to form a band on the platform of Sidcup railway station? And that Derry entered Guinness Book of World Records in 2007 for the biggest gathering of Santas - 13,000 in the one place? Of course you didn't. So join me and hundreds of contributors as we take a tour around the map of Britain to our favourite places, from the biggest city to the smallest village - with not a crap town among them. And when we get there, raise a glass to their achievements - whether they are humble, hilarious, genuinely impressive or downright weird . Cheers! The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR002350484
