Praise for THANKS JOHNNERS:

‘A splendid book…Like TMS it is funny, fluid and conversational’ THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH

‘So good that I felt as if the radio had been surreptitiously switched on and I was, in fact, listening to Test Match Special…it is the easiest and most enjoyable of reads.’
THE DAILY TELEGRAPH
