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 then he gets lucky again and again. He'd like you to high five him right now. There's a metal pilgrimage to Wacken for some. The singer of another band troubles the Panda's womenfolk. A baby is born, some criminal activity occurs, a gig with a glam band bemuses. The near waking of a baby is averted by a story about Carrotlicker Tonguewiggle and chums (a band of bunny rabbits). There is a haircut, an engagement and peace made with old adversaries. If this all sounds too exciting rest assured there are also a great many band practices, cosy pub nights in the Green Man and a spot of shopping.The metal soap opera that is Eviscerated Panda continues...

Have you forgotten how to relax and enjoy yourself? Do you run around in circles mistaking dizziness for happiness? Your troubles are over, for you hold in your hands the means to take control of your destiny, to turn your back on obligation and conformity, or at least hide from them in the toilets for a bit. Shirk, Rest and Play is a comprehensive illustrated handbook for wannabe drop-outs, dreamers, drifters and gadabouts. Authors Andrew Grumbridge and Vincent Raison - along with their panoply of wastrel acquaintances - offer ruminations about finding beauty in the ordinary, lessons in tactical slacking and detailed advice on how to get more out of life by doing less. They cover all aspects of modern existence, moving smartly through Childhood, Work, Leisure, Home, Money, Health & Beauty and, of course, Death, where even amid the tears and sadness, you can still find plates of mini-burgers. This book is the call to arms you've been waiting for, giving you all the tips, shortcuts and (de)motivation you need to duck out of the system and live life on your own terms.

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.

R255 Discovery Miles 2 550 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

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.'

As a nuclear engineer, Zsolt Stani k lived for decades in the fascinating world of atoms, nuclear reactions and reactors and was surrounded in his everyday life with the language of the trade. It dawned on him that there was also another world - the everyday life of people which was inspiring and often amusing. His stories and books are inspired by this and deal with absurd situations and normal human challenges. He was born in Kozice, now Slovak Republic. Between 1993 and retirement, in 2006 he held the position of Information Manager at the UN International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna, Austria. At present he lives in Prague, Czech Republic and holds the position of Consultant in Nuclear Knowledge Management. The book contains 17 mostly funny short stories. The three more voluminous are Hollywood Contemplations, Everyone Yearns for Svetlana and An Angle in Hell - Betty, the Story. Hollywood Contemplations is the story of a group of retired senior citizens who refuse to sit around doing nothing and hence, with daring spirit, venture into the world of fantasy and become famous movie stars. Great stuff. Svetlana is the young Russian lady whom everyone desires. It is the story of marital and extra-marital relationships with a fabulous twist in the tale. It presents a man of two faces who successfully pretends to lead a comfortable and serene married life and at the same time leads an intimate life with his lover. An Angel in Hell is the story of Betty, a true-to-life heroine of post-war Europe. It describes the bravery with which she overcomes the trials and tribulations of everyday life in Britain at that time.
