Just for a bit of fun and, more importantly as many of us are of mature years (i.e. over 21), to exercise our grey matter.
I went for a drink this evening with a very good friend of mine. He's a terrific guy: very funny and not unfamiliar with the "Carry on" series of films, so the humour was sharp and rapid fire this evening.
He said to me: "Do you remember the tendency years ago (I've heard similar in very recent years on BBC Radio 4) to invite listeners to nominate their favourite twist on the title of a fictitious book with an appropriate or inappropriate fictitious author.
One of his favourites was... "Wrestling with Bears" by Claude Balls. I counter-attacked with... "A History of the British Weather" by Ivor Nastikov., and "A history of Cliff top suicides" by Eileen Dover.
Any more chaps?
