Saw this in a charity shop today, and after reading recommendations for Gervase Phinn's writing on the BookCrossingUK list, I snapped it up. I intend to read it eventually.
Updated: 20 May 2004
Well, I haven't got round to reading it yet, but my dear husband eventually ended up loving it. He says it was slow to start, but he's so glad he read it. While I was out today, I found one of Gervase Phinn's later books as DH said he'd be happy to read more.
On the back cover there's a quote from Esther Rantzen on Esther BBC2, "Gervase Phinn has a unique understanding and love of children and a wonderful gift for storytelling ... a real star"
"With his keen ear for the absurd and sharp eye for the ludicrous, Gervase Phinn has delighted audiences with tales of his epxeriences as a school inspector." I heard him on Radio 4 and decided to bring this book up to the top of my TBR pile.
Updated 13 May 2005: As it was clear that I would not get round to this one in the near future, I will take it to release at the Ipswich Meet-up tomorrow.
