The Old Bristle Almanac
by Harry Stoke and Vinny Green
160 pages, paperback
£5.95
|
What does the future hold for you? Is now a good time to tell your boss exactly where to park his company car, or should you just call in sick? Will you be lucky in love, or will you wake up next to a right munter?
If you seek answers to questions such as these, you are in luck. Harry Stoke and Vinny Green, authors of the best-selling A Dictionary of Bristle, are back with more unique Bristolian wit in the first ever Old Bristle Almanac, a guide to all things Bristolian - whether you live north or south of the river.
On board for the ride and offering her year-round horoscopes and predictions is Bristol’s very own celebrity psychic, Rose Green. All this plus Bristol history, trivia, and even a touch of lifestyle coaching doled out from beyond the grave by the half French, all dead, pigmy genius Isambard Kingdom Brunel.
Whatever you do this year, don’t even think of getting out of bed without first consulting the Old Bristle Almanac.
