"I was in a hurry because packing is something you always do at the last minute. Anyone who packs two days before departure should seek counselling. Balanced people are still shoving stuff into their bag as they are leaving the house. That's normal."
LOL! That's *so not* me!!! LOL!

"It was another sunny day, with a few clouds around, but threatening to turn into something like scorcher. But I still couldn't understand why I was feeling so hot. Then I discovered the reason
'Gary, do you know that the heater is full on?'
'Yeah, I can't work out how to turn the thing off'
[...]
I changed the subject and said something which confirmed, beyond all doubt, my country of origin.
'Is it hot, or is it me?'
'Course it's feckin' hot, the heater's on full, you tosser.'
[...]
'Sorry about the car,' Antoinette had said, 'it's a bit of a disaster area. The only thing which really works properly on it is the heater.'
Well, that was a relief."

Tony: (Shouting at a girl) Would you like to dance?
Girl: (Shouting back) What?
Tony: (Shouting louder) Would you like to dance?
Girl: (Shouting) Yes I have, but just on a school trip to Calais.
Tony: (Shouting a bit louder still, directly into the girls ear): Not, have you been to France? - Would you like to dance?
Girl: (Shouting) Yes please, I'll have a large gin and tonic.
Tony: (Under his breath) Greedy cow
Girl: I heard that.
I'm going to hand it out to Sunneschii. She'll take it to flying-bat. Only she doesn't know yet. ;-))
So.. I'll give this book to flying-bat after I'm done with it!;-))
(I hope it's ok, humptydumpty!:-))
I liked the book, but it's not the best or the funniest I've ever read. It was nice, full-stop.
"Life is a mystery to be lived, not a problem to be solved"
I'll now figure out when I can give it to flying-bat :-))

Long live crazy ideas and the people that actually do them.
Am seriously thinking about going to Ireland for a holiday.
Thanks for this bookring. My brother told me about this book years ago and I've been dying to read it.
Werde das Buch weiterschicken, sobald ich die Adresse des nächsten auf der Liste habe.
22.08.06: Stinger hat mir leider noch nicht geantwortet, habe gerade eine zweite PM geschickt. Falls ich bis zum 25.08. keine Antwort erhalte, frage ich den nächsten nach seiner Adresse.
Thanks for sending and lending!

I enjoyed this book a lot. In the middle it got a bit boring, but towards the end it picked up again!
In fact I finished reading it in November, and gave it to my friend ... who enjoyed it a lot too, but never finished it ... so I will take it away from him now and will send it on to the next reader.
I am very sorry about the delay!

The fridge travels on .... a hilarious book, hope the next reader enjoys it, too.
Edit: As humptydumpty pointed out that there are readers on the list again, I started reading, however, I am quite slow with English books right now...

I enjoyed this book very much. At times, I was in doubt whether some remark or other was a true compliement or merely sarcastic, but hat did not lessen my fun.
The surfing fridge - ROFL! What a pity that scuba-diving was cancelled... :-D And Mother Superior blessing the fridge...
The book made me think of travelling to Ireland again...

I am nearly throiugh with this book, and as I read most of it in a bus on my way to work, it was hard not to laugh out loud at some points. This is a really good one!
