Description
Have you ever...
Got into a four-hour argument over what does and does not belong in a full English breakfast?
Sat perfectly still in terrified silence until the unknown number stops ringing and goes away?
Replied to the question 'Can I get you anything? Tea, coffee, water?' with 'Lovely, thanks'?
...then you may (still) be suffering from VERY BRITISH PROBLEMS.
Rob Temple is back to guide you through the maze of idiosyncrasies, loveable foibles and - let's admit - outright eccentricities that define this sceptred isle. Featuring groundbreaking original research from his @soverybritish Twitter account (spoiler: 84% of Brits prefer milk in first), this book may not be a remedy for your incurable VBPs, but it will certainly provide amusement as you hide in the loo from an unexpected visitor.
