Eviscerated Panda - Vulgar Display of Panda is the third book that
follows Reading's premier thrash band as they chase musical success
and fulfilment. They play gigs in Camden, Coventry, Kentish town,
Reading and High Wycombe. Often the need to also attend to the rest
of their lives gate crashes their plans. Were it not for paid
employment, families and the pursuit of women they would be a
global success by now. They find some things are never easy, while
some people are always easy. Phil revels in the attention of an
interviewer, the Pandas record an album and Suzy's band management
career sees her take on another group of men. Ian gets lucky, and

adversaries. If this all sounds too exciting rest assured there are
also a great many band practices, cosy pub nights in the Green Man

Panda continues...

'The Flynns had lived in the Daymo since the time of Brian Boru,
and I was damned if I was going to move out to some miserable
suburb of concrete, cars and kids just because Peggy said so. The
problem was that Peggy's say-so was a powerful thing, and it would
take more than my veto to stop it.' Frankie Flynn only asks to be
left alone to back an occasional horse, and to enjoy a peaceful
pint with his friends and neighbours. Peggy, his wife, has other
ideas. She wants to get out of the city, aspiring to a life of
dinner parties, kitchen diners and en suite bathrooms. As well as
Peggy's threat to his lifestyle, Frankie has to contend with a
malevolent dog, armed criminals, his malingering son-in-law, being
barred from his favourite pub, and much more.

Have you ever experienced a strong compulsion to head for the
hills? In your dreams have you ever pictured yourself running free
over some beautiful moorland landscape, with the wind in your hair
and the heather tickling you elsewhere? Perhaps, until now, you
have put it down to eating cheese before going to bed? Well, maybe
it is the Call of the North - inviting you to explore the Pennines.
Maybe it is time to set aside life's problems, step into the
footprints of the heroes of old and lose yourself in some exquisite
wilderness. Join Peter Lancaster as he dodges death and disaster
travelling the Pennines, with only 'Auntie' (his 1963 Rover) for
company...apart from his wife Jane, sheepdog and pint of beer. When
life is an uphill struggle, why not pause and take a look at the
view for a while?
Eats, Cheats and Leaves (How to deal with your philandering cad) is
a humorous, self-help book in light verse. Beautifully illustrated
by the cartoonist Gemma Hastilow (of Horrible Science fame), each
verse takes us through the traumas of the woman betrayed, and how
to deal with that philandering man. Starting with the caveat that:
It isn't just men who're unfaithful, Some women are equally bad,
But this booklet is written For women once bitten By the classic
philandering cad. It therefore makes no apology for addressing
women, who are told how to spot the philanderer, and then, for the
unfortunate majority who don't spot him in time, how to deal with
him and the chaos he causes. The verse takes us through 5 clearly
marked parts, from discovery, through grief, anger and action-plan
to recovery, and each part addresses the reader directly. This is a
book for all women who have ever been betrayed, and for all women
who are likely to be betrayed (so pretty much every woman). It is
fast-paced, optimistic and a bit of a lark. As Caroline Sanderson
from The Bookseller says: 'This witty and wise consolation in verse
should be made available on prescription for every wronged woman.
It dispenses oodles of sisterly succour, and lashings of healing
humour.'
Here is a collection of short stories and doggerel, told by a man
who, due to retirement, has too much time on his hands. There are
simple tales of simple tasks, carried out by someone against whom
everything and everyone seems to conspire, and for whom nothing is
as good as it used to be. Nothing is straightforward and very
little goes right. Whether it's riding on a toboggan with his
granddaughter or taking his cat to the vets, the results are
invariably the same - disaster.
Sad people who sit in front of a television set wishing they could
get some adventure in their lives should take note of the contents
of this small tome as it proves beyond doubt that even in the prime
of life the rush of adrenaline can still be achieved. This is the
second volume of factual events undertaken by a group of people who
should have the wisdom of age but choose to ignore it.
A pictorial and factual view at what goes on behind closed doors in
the exciting world of the new internet radio station Seaford Surf
Radio. You may be shocked at the laughable shenanigans and antics
of the board members. We uncover tories of intrigue and deception
to downright funny. The newspaper articles are clever, quick witted
and will bring a smile to your face. On top of that there is the
challenge of Frogbeat's ultimate quiz challenges. Dare you try it?
The book is more than a story; it is a journey which starts with an
idea by Frogbeat and leads you through the changes and challenges
from its initial concept of design to a fully established player in
the entertainment industry. The road map has changed over the short
period and demonstrates the diversity of the people involved -
Enjoy!
