Danny Wallace - Friends Like These - Waterstone's

http://www.waterstones.com/waterstonesweb/displayProductDetails.do?sku=5620127

Comedian TV presenter and bestselling author Danny Wallace talks about his book, Friends Like These. Danny Wallace is about to turn thirty and his life has become a cliche. Recently married and living in a smart new area of town, he's swapped pints for lattes and had even contemplated buying coasters. Something wasn't right - he was feeling way too grown-up. Until - Danny finds an old address book containing just twelve names. His best mates as a kid. Where are they now? Who are they now? And how are they coping with this scary concept of being grown-up? And so begins a journey from A-Z, tracking down and meeting his old gang. He travels from Berlin to Tokyo, from Sydney to LA. He even goes to Loughborough. He meets Fijian chiefs. German rappers. Some ninjas. And a carvery manager who's managed to solve time travel. But how will they respond to a man they haven't seen in twenty years, turning up and asking if they're coming out to play? Friends Like These is the story of what can happen when you track down your past, and of where the friendships you thought you'd outgrown can take you today...

I work a very near to Waterstones Piccadilly - being the pedant that I am I should've come down to point out the other typos in the book! :D

Favourite summertime/beach reading - just a shame he doesn't have anything for me this summer!

You can get a discount at the event with your ticket (waterstones)...i've already bought it just after it came out...i think i'll buy it again to get a 'less-read' special copy :]

[GwaihirTheWindlord]
