Pre-order the hilarious new book from the nation's favourite
comedian, Billy Connolly Being a Rambling Man was what I always
wanted to be, to live the way I damn well pleased. I've met the
weirdest and most wonderful people who walk the Earth, seen the
most bizarre and the most fantastic sights - and I've rarely come
across something I couldn't get a laugh at. I don't think I've ever
had a bad trip. Well, apart from in the 1970s, but that's a whole
other story . . . When Billy set out from Glasgow as a young man he
never looked back. He played his banjo on boats and trains, under
trees, and on top of famous monuments. He danced naked in snow,
wind and fire. He slept in bus stations, under bridges and on
strangers' floors. He travelled by foot, bike, ship, plane, sleigh
- even piggy-backed - to get to his next destination. Billy has
wandered to every corner of the earth and believes that being a
Rambling Man is about more than just travelling - it's a state of
mind. Rambling Men and Women are free spirits who live on their
wits, are interested in people and endlessly curious about the
world. They love to play music, make art or tell stories along the
way but, above all, they have a longing in their heart for the open
road. In his joyful new book, Billy explores this philosophy and
how it has shaped him, and he shares hilarious new stories from his
lifetime on the road. From riding his trike down America's famous
Route 66, building an igloo on an iceberg in the Arctic, playing
elephant polo (badly) in Nepal and crashing his motorbike (more
than once), to eating witchetty grubs in Australia, being serenaded
by a penguin in New Zealand, and swapping secrets in a traditional
Sweat Lodge ritual in Canada, Rambling Man is a truly global
adventure with the greatest possible travel companion.
