I'm having a go, but my brain is still numb from today's FY cryptic and watching 'Only Connect' on the TV!

It's a fabulously funny book....now out of print.

I used to have both a paperback and hard back copy....now long gone.

Time clue....Harold Wilson.

Oh, superb clue Mr MaQ - I've just come in from pub quiz and brain not as sharp as it might be, so resorted to Word Wizard for the answer. The way you got all the components in there is truly impressive - I bet you were a little pleased with it yourself! Pasty, just saw the answer to yours on the other thread - I've never read it but remember my Mum talking about it when I was in my teens (1990s???), so on your recommendation I'll ask if she's still got a copy.

Really sorry Pastille, but I've never heard of your book!
Hope you're still enjoying the Autumn Quiz.

Do you have any ideas for a theme for the next one?

Well Mrs T I hope your mum still has a copy.....read it, then sell it .....check out the prices.

Wish I had not loaned out my copies....such is life.
