London England, Robson Books, 1996. First Edition, Binding: Cloth, Very Good/Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall 1861050682 Signed by Author Hardback Signed inscription by the author. Tom O'Connor is one of Britain's best-loved and funniest entertainers, and in this hilarious book he looks at the funnier side of eating, drinking, dieting, exercising, losing weight, gaining weight, cooking, shopping and all that goes with keeping ourselves alive and fit. Of all the bodily functions, eating is one of the most personal. Shoving wads of food into a hole below the nose using various implements - forks, spoons, knives, chopstickes, fingers - is surely a process to be undergone behind closed doors. But no, we humans prove just how different we are to those in the animal kingdom by actually flaunting our feeding habits in hugely public places. Have you ever thought how we must appear to alien beings? What would the average Martian make of our efforts to coil strands of spaghetti round our forks and shove them into our mouth in slurpy lumps? What about what we eat? And when we eat? Yesr, our habits and foibles are unique - and Tom O'Connor celebrates every one in this highly entertaining look at what we all love most in life! Illustrations.
