A fascinating collection of the many unusual and vibrant phrases that adorn our language, looking at their origins and meanings.
Caroline Taggart worked in publishing as an editor of popular
non-fiction for thirty years before being asked by Michael O'Mara
Books to write I Used to Know That, which became a Sunday Times
bestseller. Following that she was co-author of My Grammar and I
(or should that be 'Me'?), and wrote a number of other books about
words and English usage. She has appeared frequently on television
and on national and regional radio, talking about language, grammar
and whether or not Druids Cross should have an apostrophe.
Her website is carolinetaggart.co.uk and you can follow her on
Twitter @citaggart.
