Review
Pam Ayres makes me laugh. I love her quick witt and the corny way she captures the fun of everyday life.
This is a short anthology of not only poems but also of some of her witty stories told on the radio over the years. My favorite poem is not in the book, but I can still hear her reciting it - Called - I Wish I'd looked after my Teeth. I can remember reading that to my children but I have had a real good chuckle at "Will I have to be Sexy at Sixty".
There are thrity six stories and ditties in the book, Pam collate some more so we can carry on laughing in this mad cap world of ours.
