Your own pairing might perhaps have the comment "Put out more fags" ...

Actually, there is at least one book called The Deer Hunter.

Ha! I typed that one out earlier but deleted it.

Great minds...

No problem Marion - I can "tell you a story of a man named Charlie" and no doubt it's still "a scandal that the people should pay and pay" - but can you follow me to...

The Name of the Rose - Billy Budd

John Whitworth 05-15-2012 08:26 PM

Billy Budd/ Petts Bottom

Alas, the second one isn't a book, just a place near me. James Bond lived there with his aunt. Who said Ian Fleming didn't have a sense of humour?

There are, however, books called Bottoms Up and Bottom Up. The second is a sociological tome. And George Melly wrote a volume of autobiography called Rum, Bum and Concertina. Very good it is, too.

Unfortunately, the first one is definitely not a book.
