Synopsis

Football is not a matter of life or death. It’s more important than that like. And so are lasses. In fact, shot us over a Parmo, and I’m proppa buzzin me, for the rest of the day. This is a celebration of all things Middlesbrough, the club, the town and the language. It’s not about the author being from Boro, it’s about the reader being from Boro. You will proppa laff as you read all about the ‘Middlesbruh’ male perspective on life and it’s chocka with humourous observations and man-secrets. Owee in and gerrit read canny lad. Ayas coming in or what, you? This book will make a lovely novelty Christmas gift or stocking filler for anyone from Teesside or interested in the area. Anyone in love with Middlesbrough either through heritage or some other way will enjoy the way the writer has grafted to translate the story into Middlesbrough-speak, in just the same way as you would translate a work into Spanish or French. MEN ARE FROM MARS…I’M FROM MIDDLESBROUGH was the first in the series of MEN FROM MARS books and as such the author is tremendously proud of it. The research that went into it was immense and arduous. I believe a fully rounded appreciation of the area resulted from that hard graft. ANYONE FROM MIDDLESBROUGH WILL LOVE THIS. SUITABLE 14/15 UPWARDS. THAT'S CHRISTMAS SORTED!!!
