Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This is Volume 1 of the collected works of The Chimping Dandy. Author, Blogger, Humourist, Flashtronaut and lover of Pangolins (But not in that way). There are Seventy-Five stories representing nearly a year of irreverent writing, on such various themes as Polar Bears, Motorcycling, Lego, Ph…ysical Injuries to Myself, and The Paranormal (WoOoOoOoOoOo), which are guaranteed to make you laugh on the bus, or the train, or the aeroplane, or the toilet. Well, at least smile. Well, perhaps get people to ask whether you've got indigestion at least. Almost all of the stories have a basis in truth, although a number have been edited to add some much needed pathos, bathos and custard. (and for spelling. Mostly for spelling.) Should you buy this book? Well of course you should, I went to the trouble of writing it, then publishing it on the Kindle, then reformatting it completely to be published as a real book that you can use for swatting flies or propping up a wonky table or dropping in the bath. As a discerning reader, the least you can do is hit the 'Buy this truly splendid book' button. (Your button may actually be named differently, but it should be around somewhere. Try the corners, they sometimes like to hide the button in the corners.) It's not like you need the money. Well, you might need the money, but I need the money more, if I wasn't starving, I couldn't really call myself an artist could I? I have children, and they have mouths that need feeding. Not buying this book literally takes bread from my children's mouths, and they kind of like bread. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Chimping Dandy has evolved. Not in a Pokemon 'Oh look I've doubled in size and grown wings' way, but in a more insightful, thoughtful way. No longer are his books just full of stories of drunken debauchery and things that happened to him before he was infamous. This second volume of his…collected works contains many more of his views on life. He talks in depth about how the world could be made a better place. How we could all get along with only a few minor tweaks to our lifestyle. Don't get me wrong, there are still a number of frankly idiotic stories, including the one where he sets an angry goose on a famous sporting personality. But on the whole, it's all a little more considered. The Chimping Dandy has certainly come of age. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Back in the days of yore, one man rose from the mists of confusion and stood alone on a lonely, isolated pinnacle. alone, but for his faithful Pangolin companion. That man was the Chimping Dandy, although he had many different names, some called him 'The People's Champion', still others 'The… Slitherer in the Night' and, to the people of the Northlands at least, he would always be 'Shadwell the Unsympathetic, the one with the limp, who lives next door to Mick's Aunty Margaret' But seriously, if you've read either of Rob Grimes' first two books you'll know exactly what to expect from this third titanic volume. Mainly because it comprises his first two books condensed into one, with one major difference. Both 'Mumblings of an Irate Pangolin' and 'The Pangolin Yodels' were warts and all accounts of the varied previous lives of the author. He didn't hold much back in the interests of honest reporting, so obviously some of the stories involved adult themes. Some stories also contained language that was colourful and situations that, whilst not explicit, were not exactly child-friendly. This cut the potential readership down by quite a large percentage, and people complained that they couldn't allow their children to read either of the books - not even as a cautionary tale (which they work brilliantly as) So, gone are all the references to illegal substances, ladies of negotiable virtue and unnatural acts. Their places have been taken by polar bears, computer games and botched church services. Altogether more wholesome subjects for the youngsters, I think you'll agree. So, if you'd just like to pop over to the right hand side of the screen and hit the 'Add to Basket' button (or 'Buy it now' if you live in the 21st. Century and have a Kindle) He'll be eternally grateful. Well, maybe not eternally. But he'll certainly give you a wistful smile. Please remember, this is not a Children's Book, but it is a book that children can read, and laugh at, and say 'Mummy, do you think he really did that?' (And the answer to that is - Yes, he probably did) This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
