Funny and squirmingly vivid
*Daily Telegraph*
There aren’t many travel writers funnier than Tim Moore
*Independent on Sunday*
A fine piece of comic writing...by the end of the book he is,
unlike his Maestro, firing on all cylinders
*Guardian*
A pilgrimage to the most derelict, unlovable and forlorn parts of
Britain
*Independent*
Hilarious
*Sun*
There's a true affection in the descriptions of bypasses,
roundabouts and rainy caravan parks
*Daily Mail*
Moore is...a likeable guide and a witty turner of phrases, and his
plunges into local history as he tootles around in his decrepit
Austin Maestro demonstrate a gift for bathos and an eye for the
poetry of dereliction
*Time Out*
Moore has a nice line in description...and is able to describe the
many absurdities encountered on his travels with admirable
detachment
*Choice Magazine*
Hilarious... This book will have you in stitches... What emerges is
a nostalgic celebration of just how mad Britain can be (5
stars)
*Daily Express*
Tim Moore's wry portraits of unfashionable British towns nicely
combine knockabout humour, witty one-liners and an undertow of
sadness
*Sunday Telegraph*
