Funny and squirmingly vivid
Daily Telegraph
There's a true affection in the descriptions of bypasses, roundabouts and rainy caravan parks
Tom Cox, 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
Euan Ferguson, Time Out
Hilarious
Sun
There aren't many travel writers funnier than Tim Moore
Independent on Sunday
A pilgrimage to the most derelict, unlovable and forlorn parts of Britain
Independent
Hilarious... This book will have you in stitches... What emerges is a nostalgic celebration of just how mad Britain can be (5 stars)
Hannah Britt, Daily Express
Tim Moore's wry portraits of unfashionable British towns nicely combine knockabout humour, witty one-liners and an undertow of sadness
Sally Cousins, Sunday Telegraph
A fine piece of comic writing...by the end of the book he is, unlike his Maestro, firing on all cylinders
Nick Lezard, Guardian
Moore has a nice line in description...and is able to describe the many absurdities encountered on his travels with admirable detachment
Choice Magazine
A brilliant book to dip in and out of. For those that love the works of rambling travel authors such as Bill Bryson this book will be a perfect addition to their collection
