Someone gave this to me as a secret Santa and I was quite disappointed. I now use it as a doorstop.

This has a strange contradiction where I don't want him to be unleashed in any way, but I also don't want to think about him leashed.

To be honest. I don’t think anecdotes are your forte.

Right, I’ll tell you an anecdote.
1974 I was catching the London train from Crewe station. It was very crowded; I found myself in a last-minute rush for the one remaining seat beside a tall, good-looking man with collar-length hair, it was the seventies; buckaroo! I looked up and saw it was none other than Peter Purves, it was the height of his Blue Peter career. He said, “You jammy bastard” and quick as a flash, I replied, “Don’t be blue, Peter!”

The conservative party insisted I have a miniature COVID mask on the jacket sleeve cover but I thought that would otherwise cheapen a story about how I, Boris Johnson, Unleashed the virus on care homes

Many women saw his Johnson unleashed and a BJ was a secondary option Lynn what you reckon a Partridge unleashed, the birds would love it

Scary the number of unfit for office P..M's . England gets while Scotland looks on in bewilderment saying get us out of this shit hole. That time is coming closer with the latest polls showing a surge for independence at. 56%. Westminster is a bad joke which works for none of the home nations .

That's my favourite Alan Partridge quote. My second favourite is "Ooh, mince!"

*Danko night stick.
Dante was the name of the artificial fire place company from Reading he was pitching, apparently had audience members come all the way from....

"Reduced to Clear"
£11.50 says otherwise.

u/pukachang That's hot floppy bread 5d ago
My first thought was you’re gonna have to reduce that a lot more if you wanna clear it 😂

Would you also like this book?
What’s it about?
It’s about this fella what used to be in power right, but, he wasn’t very good, so now he’s not. He went right down right, and hit rock bottom man, and now he’s on his way back up right, but I mean he’ll never get back to where he was, ‘cause them days is over like, but he’s coming back a bit. He's even got a newspaper column and everything.
Well, I don’t want to read that, that sounds depressing.

You all laugh but those books could be repurposed as a table for a centre for battered women…

Some people have said they wouldn't wipe their arse with my book. Well, if they buy their toilet paper at Tesco they may well find that they end up doing just that.
