Fascinating, lively and endless fun, 'A Man About A Dog' is a must for anyone captivated by language and our ability to abuse it. Examples include:

'Discussing Ugandan affairs'
'Ambulance chaser'
'Hygienically challenged'

Nigel Rees is one of the best-known language writers and presenters in the UK. His 'Quote…Unquote' radio programme has been running for nearly thirty years.
