Publish and be ******. (Or maybe even ******.)Not only is my book, Filthy English, now out and for sale in all bookshops (good, bad and smelly) but it’s even had good reviews. Here is the one in The Observer.

Thanks to all of you who got in contact about hearing me on the Today programme. Now I know what a good number of my friends and acquaintances get up to before breakfast on Saturday mornings. The IPlayer link to that show is no longer available but here is a link to what I wrote about it on my (wonderful) publisher’s blogsite.

Next up That dissertation, finally.
PS The book cover is actually blue but the jpg came out this strange pink colour (on my laptop anyway). I’m popping out for some technical advice. Be with you again soon.

I'm really enjoying the book and finding some of the extended vocabulary I'm developing very helpful in department meetings. "Blowing the hairy trumpet" is a favourite.
Thanks for writing such an enjoyable book.
what kind of department meetings — i think we should be told — there is more about the book at http://www.portobellobooks.com/Comment-and-Blogs/On-Swearing
