Bought this book for a work collegue that I chose in our Secret Santa. He absolutely loved it and also found it amusing, as we are teachers. However before I even wrapped it up my boyfriend had a quick flick through it and said his father would absolutely love it; with all the little snippets of information. I am now in the process of purchasing 2 more copies one for the father, and another for the son incase he tries to nab it again. Thanks for a great complete gift E. Foley & B. Coates.
