From laundrettes to contact lenses Paul McCartney's trousers to plane crashes McGough guides us through the pitfalls and idiosyncrasies of our illogical and unexciting lives and finds the humour and drama hidden within.

Presenter of Radio 4's Poetry Please and Britain's foremost popular poet McGough brings us this happy collision of life language and imagination with his unique and witty wordplay.
