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

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

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...

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.
