Lazing down the Thames
bored with pretending to work
the dog has more sense.
There are lol parts to this book. It's best if you like dry British humor.
This is a lazy saturday afternoon read. The humor is amusing, it made me laugh out loud at times too. The book doesn't have any emotions, but it does give you a feeling of... insouciance. After reading there's nothing of it left in my head, except for few incidences and jokes. An “enjoy as you read” book.
