Tessa the Duchess Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I am looking for a book, so far I have tried: Amazon The Book Depository Abe Books The Green Metropolis It is out of stock everywhere!! Has anybody got suggestions of any other book sites I could search? Oh! The book is by Hovis Presley (poet, comedian) and is called Poetic Off Licence. Just in case anybody has it lurking on their bookshelves and would be willing to sell or lend it to me. Thanks Tessa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I have lots of poetic contacts so if you still can't find it, let me know and I'll send a message out to see if anyone has it or knows where you can get it. Just let me know if you need me to put the word out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed I was Miss Clever Clogs I have heard some of his stuff before, he sounded such a nice guy, I just love his deadpan delivery and he is sooooooo funny, I went on to his website and he worked with John Shuttleworth another of my comedy heroes.
