The Things People Say

People say the funniest, saddest weirdest things when they’re out in public. For the most part they get away it...but not any more.

The Things People Say: An Everyday Guide to Earwigging is a collection of overheard, recorded and remembered snippets of off-the record conversation.

Page by page this is a collection of amusing and occasionally thought provoking mini dramas. Taken as a whole it offers a bittersweet portait of the Great British Public with its guard down.

There’s a little bit of Alan Bennett in there, a taste of Pete’n’Dud, a slither or two of Ricky Gervais and Catherine Tate, even a splash of Monty Python. And there’s a whole heap of humanity, unabridged, unadulterated, and just a little unhinged.
