Early ReviewersGerald Cowan

In this, the follow-up to his first book, Gerald Cowan provides the grand total of 430 more limericks – all new, all original and all written by the author himself!

As before the emphasis is very much on humour with the hope that they will raise a smile, a giggle and hopefully a few laugh out loud moments. More limericks mean more weird, wacky and wonderful characters and a variety of bizarre, often comical situations. Which ones to mention here? Well it's difficult to make a choice but here are a few characters the reader may want to meet or perhaps avoid at all costs!

Dot a kinky contortionist

Paul, a very camp tightrope walker

Mr. Sweeney, a lifeguard with a strange dress sense

Fay who gets up to all sorts when stuck in a lift

Aggie and Ray who find a new lease of life when they acquire a bidet

Ted, a cross-eyed knife thrower

Some of the limericks are a little bit naughty, even risqué! However, the British have a strong tradition of bawdy humour and this collection hopefully upholds and pays tribute to this heritage!

A collection of almost 130 original limericks with the accent very much on the comic, the absurd and the outrageous. A series of characters find themselves in a range of weird and wacky situations with things never going quite according to plan. Such is life! The limericks are designed to amuse, entertain and raise a smile or two. Some are aimed specifically at adults with themes which may be seen as a little risqué. However, all of this is adds to the comic effect and none overstep the mark. We have a long history of saucy humour and these poems pay tribute to this great tradition. So, if you want to find out about the silly young strongman Russ, the lady baker from Govan, the ageing stripper Yvonne and many, many more......read on!
