Inhaltsangabe

A surrealistic romp through the comic correspondence and outlandish adventures of a naval grandee and his slightly crackpot circle. It is a satire of social mores through the mad-cap carnival of personalities and escapades. Welcome to volatile bulldogs, budgie-seed addicts, balloonatics, impulsive surgeons, Pisky liberationists, naked pedalista, Russian pilchard kings and Nobby, an aerial predator on the roof of Boscastle gents lavatory. A fast-moving and hilarious commentary on the world and its absurdities.
