Download or read book Barry and Bev written by Rita May and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2017-02-14 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kenthorpe Working Men’s Club in the north of England is in dire financial difficulties. To try and help the situation, the Committee come up with emergency measures, including a top-class act booked for Saturday night concerts. The first concert is a brilliant success; the concert room is full to capacity by 6:30pm and the takings are up by 109%. As word spreads, the number of punters sharply increases. This causes problems for some of the members’ wives, as they can’t get into the club early enough to get a seat. The club’s ‘Men Only’ room is frequented by a few of the older club members, but Rule No. 57, which bars women from the room, still stands from when the club was built in 1932. The women decide to challenge this as seats are always available in the ‘Men Only’ room. The ladies’ section come up with the idea to make the ‘Men Only’ room into a ‘Members Only’ room. Never mind an outdated rule, this is the twenty-first century! The oldies fight against this and a committee vote backs them. In a final push, the women decide to fight for full membership. This is rejected so the women boycott the club in favour of a rival club, The Bluebell, taking all their activities (and takings) with them. This causes a rift between the men and women on both personal and private levels. Local and national newspapers, local radio and television take up their stories, making this worse. A standoff ensues, which ends in devastating consequences... Extremely funny, yet thought-provoking, Barry and Bev will appeal to those looking for a light-hearted tale with substance.

Download or read book The Game written by Don McLean and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2019-03-04 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This traditional-style murder mystery takes place in the unlikely setting of a hospital where an innocuous game, which medical staff play to hone their professional skills, provides the stimulus for murder. When Katlin’s long-time friend dies mysteriously just as she is to be discharged from the hospital, Katlin and her colleague Palmer start stalking clues. Soon, they become convinced that a killer is taking advantage of the hospital environment to cover up deadly crime and using techniques that might have been learned during the game. But why would a medical professional, trained to alleviate physical and mental health, decide to murder seemingly random hospital patients? And why is this hospital the killer’s target? Is the killer cold-blooded or suffering from some sort of delusion? With the whole hospital’s staff as potential suspects, this whodunit is sure to keep the amateur sleuths guessing.
Book Synopsis Dave Barry's Book of Bad Songs by : Dave Barry
Download or read book Dave Barry's Book of Bad Songs written by Dave Barry and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2012-11-06 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The humorist asked his readers to share their least favorite tunes and chronicles the hilarious responses. When funnyman Dave Barry asked readers about their least favorite tunes, he thought he was penning just another installment of his weekly syndicated humor column. But the witty writer was flabbergasted by the response when over 10,000 readers voted. “I have never written a column that got a bigger response than the one announcing the Bad Song Survey,” Barry wrote. Based on the results of the survey, Dave Barry’s Book of Bad Songs is a compilation of some of the worst songs ever written. Dave Barry fans will relish his quirky take. Music buffs too will appreciate this humorous stroll through the world’s worst lyrics. The only thing wrong with this book is that readers will find themselves unable to stop mentally singing the greatest hits of Gary Puckett. Praise for Dave Barry’s Book of Bad Songs “Barry is his usual puckish self, but the real surprise here is how funny many of the survey respondents are.” —Kirkus Reviews “Who can resist such a book?” —Publishers Weekly

Book Synopsis The Unlikely Celebrity by : Thomas Walz
Download or read book The Unlikely Celebrity written by Thomas Walz and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Walz tells the story of Bill Sackter, a man who spent nearly half a century in a Minnesota mental institution and emerged to blossom into a most unlikely celebrity. Bill Sackter was committed to the Faribault State Hospital at the age of seven, there to remain until he was in his fifties. At the time of his commitment, Bill's father had recently died; thus his sole contact with his family came through rare letters from his mother. Some years after his discharge from Faribault as a result of the movement to deinstitutionalize the mentally ill in the 1960s, Bill enjoyed a serendipitous encounter with a young college student and part-time musician, Barry Morrow. Bill became part of the Morrow family and a regular in Morrow's music group. When Morrow accepted a job at the School of Social Work at the University of Iowa, Bill followed him to Iowa City and was put in charge of a small coffee service. Bill became an important part of the University of Iowa community, and Wild Bill's Coffeeshop developed into an institution. A cheerful man of great good will who was a harmonica virtuoso, Bill began to inspire affectionate legends, and his life as a celebrity began in earnest. He was named Iowa's Handicapped Person of the Year in 1977, and two television movies were made about his life--Bill, which earned Emmy awards for cowriter Barry Morrow and Mickey Rooney (as Bill) in 1981, and Bill on His Own in 1983. Years later, Morrow would earn an Oscar for his script of Rain Man. Through vignettes ranging from hilarious to near tragic. Walz reveals a remarkable human being. An account of Bill's life in an institution is necessarily part of the story, but there is much more: Bill's role in helping a young child recover from a coma, his menagerie of friends, his love for a pet parakeet, his late-life Bar Mitzvah, his failure as a woodworker, his success as Santa, and his dignified death at the age of seventy.
Download or read book Joe's Letters written by David W Clark and published by Author House. This book was released on 2006-03-13 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flight Lieutenant Frank Clark died in a fiery collision between two Spitfires in the war-torn skies over Normandy. He left behind a one-year-old son and a thirteen-year-old brother. These two had an intense interest in trying to piece together the life and times of Frank Clark. However, there was no stash of photographs, no neat pile of letters, no log book, no diary. Then serendipity stepped in. A dozen photographs of Frank came to light and a cache of 50 letters written to his best friend. These letters revealed a colourful, flesh and blood person whose youth, vitality and good humour sprang out from the pages. This book is that story.
Download or read book This Time Next Year written by Liz Hinds and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-04-11 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When her decree absolute arrives in the post with her 50th birthday cards Alison Turner wonders if middle age life can get any worse. When the highlights of the last year include being told off by the plumber for 'putting feminine items of hygiene down the lavatory', and her husband leaving her for a 28-year-old 'bimbo', it's easy to understand why Alison exclaims in her diary, 'I do not want another year like that. I must get a new plumber.' But if the romantic aspect of Alison's life leaves a lot to be desired (including sex, which is something the rest of her family appear to be enjoying) the everyday aspect is full of incident. In a year of well-intentioned ineptitude, as Alison records in her diary, she is thrown out of a pub for the first time in her life, begins to diet eight times (at least), finds out twelve unappealing things about dogs and discovers that first impressions can sometimes be misleading.
