    Barry Cryer making me laugh

    A wonderful scrap book style presentation about a comedy genius. Not only a great writer, but also a comedian in his own right and a thoroughly decent chap. A welcome book to my collection with the exacting high standard you come to expect from Porter Press.

    Laughing out loud

    Thanks for the very generous bag of reading material. I hadnt realised how wide-ranging your publishing is: Deborah kept laughing out loud at the Barry Cryer scrapbook. All in all, a fine Saturday.
