Looks good for its age (1984). Some minor signs of shelf wear and use. The biggest flaw is the wavy pages (see picture). Dust jacket is included and in a good condition – some dents and a sticker on the spine.
Does your dog give tongue – or simply cheek?
Can you call your in-laws a couple of Old Berks without the need to lower your voice?
Have you heard the phrase ‘cock left’ more times at a pheasant shoot than at your tailor’s?
Does the sight of a tweedy grockle make you want to plant a custard?
Have you ever pulled the chain in a duke’s bathroom and been mugged by a Victorian cistern?
Is a Husky your constant winter bed partner?
Do you whisper ‘yurt, yurt, yurt’ in the ear of your favourite bitch?
If you can answer ‘absolutely’ to any of the above, there is a strong chance you will already know some of the characters that appear within the pages of this book.
However, if you scored a resounding nil, do not despair.
With the help of The Green Wellie Guide, Grange Rovers everywhere will be fully equipped to cope with that mysterious and enduring institution: The Great British Country Weekend.
A word of warning: country weekends can be bad for your health.
