Andy_K_97 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Just bought it. Meant to buy it on Monday but being an eternal procrastinator has meant it's a wonder I'm here at all. Can't wait to leave a P&B-related review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiltrum Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 "Hmmm, what shall we call this game?" "Well, people's nicknames are often their name, or part of their name with the suffix 'y'" "Yeah, why don't we use that basis for naming this game?" "Well, the game is about throwing the ball with the intention of it rebounding off the corner of a kerb, why don't we call it kerby?" "Nah, lets just go for 'cribby'" Don't you mean rebounding off the Edge as the corners would have been butted? together and Cribby sounds like a game of Crib. Kerby IMHO is the correct description, but Kirby may well be more akin to what the kids say I suppose it depends which town or area you come from. PS. Hope it sells good luck.

KnightswoodBear Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I'm sitting reading this on the train through to Edinburgh trying not to laugh. You're basically describing my childhood in the late 80's/early 90's. I've already snorted to such an extent that my kindle ended up misted in snotter. Ya dick.

deadasdillinger Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 Not a problem, well worthy of the positive reviews. When do you think you'll get the follow up released...? I'm already enthusiastically working on it, tho I honestly couldn't even guess as to when it'll be done. "Kerby" must have taken me 2/3 years, working away on it in stolen moments travelling back from work, late at night, weekends etc. I've got an 18 month old boy, so I'd go months without even opening it, then have furious spells of intense writing when I got the chance. So following a similar schedule, I'd like to think I could bash it out in the next year or two at the most! I'm sitting reading this on the train through to Edinburgh trying not to laugh. You're basically describing my childhood in the late 80's/early 90's. I've already snorted to such an extent that my kindle ended up misted in snotter. Ya dick. Yaas I bought this the other day, it seemed like the cool thing to do. Not read any of it yet. Cheers for the 4-star review with the mark off for 'being a Killie fan' Hopefully you can find it in your cold, cold heart to chuck another star on there if you read and enjoy the book! I just read it. He dies at the end. Dude, spoiler alert. Ordered it just now. No pressure, but I'm expecting greatness. Thanks, buddy! Hope it doesn't disappoint...

paul-r-cfc Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Very much enjoyed it. Assumed it would be shit seen as this is pie and bovril but was very impressed. I'm not quite a 90s kid and I did most of my growing up in the early noughties but plenty I could still relate too P.S. I've actually scored a Hat-trick at Rugby park so yeah........

Blootoon87 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Being born within a few months of me, this resonates deeply. It's immature as f**k but I was decked when reminded about dropping your gay card etc. What a horrible bunch of c***s children are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quentin Taranbino Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 How many have you sold so far? Online and offline? Do you make decent money per book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I've written a self-help book and so far the publishers have turned me down. Hopefully, though, one day 'w**k Yourself Thin' will make the Amazon bestsellers list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
