RoMP: Purveyors of Sagging Gusset Love It

It was bound to happen one day of course, national exposure, a spread in a major newspaper filled almost entirely with my work.

If ONLY it hadn’t been the fucking Sport…

I’m not sure whether to laugh or cry.

If it weren’t for the bit in the very middle, I’d call it an advert.

According to Amazon.co.uk, you’re the author of the #2 Humour best seller right now. And they’re only charging £5.99! Less than the Humdrumming Book of Horror Stories!

Here’s someone’s review of your efforts from the same page:

5.0 out of 5 stars The Thoughts of Chairman Gene, 28 Oct 2007
By Tony Williams (Carbondale, Il United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)
This book is a real gem and my title is not accidental. A little bit larger in size than the famous “Little Red Book”, the inside cover features a picture of the Guv reminding one of Mao’s photo in that earlier production. But whereas the Little Red Book” was more serious in nature, this is a lot more fun as well as also being a key product of its historical era. LIFE ON MARS was a pioneering television series that finally ended some ten years of mediocre television drama and opened the way for other achievements. These “Rules” reflect the unseen presence of “The Guv” prompting the new plainclothesman (”plonks” are naturally not recognized and their presence grudgingly admitted) into an awareness of 1973 police work. Also, the multiple choice tests, with scores by young Chris Skleton, are much more hilarious than any boring multiple choice test for school A levels or immigration tests. It is a great follow up to a great series and a suitable companion volume to the author’s co-authored work on Season One of the series. Yes, it is much cheaper on amazon,com. wherever one is in the world and whatever the exchange rate. A definite buy for all real fans of the series suitably aged with faked non-acid free paper with marks of pint glass rims soiling the pages and other items easily identifiable with the Guv. Guy Adams has done a great job.

It is a great book mate, you should be proud of yourself.

Thank for the copy too, it came a few days ago. How is it selling, do you know yet?

Ian - you detailed before how a computer could be fixed in three easy steps. Would you be so kind as to repeat them please as obviously I can’t go back into the post?

I did? Really?

Well, the post may soon be back but sadly all of the comments have gone ka-blooey! The Way-Back Machine doesn’t take a ’snapshot’ that deep into a blog, so sadly all of our comments about Guy’s cock are gone from here forever. We;ll have to make more, obviously.

But to return to your question.
