Miles Kington wrote a column a day for more than thirty years. In that time he delighted, amused and gently poked fun at a large proportion of the UK population. In many ways he captured the essence of 'Britishness', drawing humour from everyday situations and frustrations and leaving the reader with a smile of recognition on their faces. During his life Kington wrote countless columns and over 15 books - including the popular 'Franglais' series - all of which are currently out of print. In this volume, Old Street have put together a new selection of some of his best pieces. The result is a festival of irreverent humour, offbeat ideas and eccentric characters that will have Kington fans roaring with laughter.
