Partly poking fun, partly providing helpful hints, this book is an enjoyable gem for those of us living in the modern age.

Illustrated with factual diagrams and covering such scenarios as ‘How to save your date from choking’, this has become an indispensable personal point of reference and has pride of place in the Loosemore looside library. Thanks Hazel!

A perfect gift for a sibling or friend, whether single or attached, but probably not suitable for dowager aunt Agatha.
