Pam Ayres is well known in the UK and Australia for her humorous poetry.

From the back cover:

Bill Spinks gazed round his bedroom
From the ceiling to the floor
At the ancient bullfight poster
With him as the matador
And something was amiss
That he could not put into words
But in simple language it was this:
He didn’t get the birds

Bill’s plans for improving his love-life include a bed that positively bristles with gadgetry—a piece of technology that allows full rein to Pam Ayres’ brilliant talent for comic invention.

Throughout this short collection, 24 poems, Pam is at her wry and witty best. Poems like:

• Eat, Drink and be Sick;
  
• The Rat Resuscitation Rhyme;
  
• The Exiled Gum; and the heartfelt
  
• Will You Take Your Children Home Before I Do Them In
  

demonstrate all the flair and zany humour that have made her books worldwide bestsellers.
