I was listening to a podcast the other night who said that Tony Blackburn's 2007 autobiography was a big influence on the I Partridge spoof Autobiography. It is tremendous https://storify.com/Eamonn_Forde/tony-blackburn-s-autobiography-compressed-for-stor



Laughed out loud at some of that. Tremendous reading.

Alan's new book -- Nomad -- came out yesterday. Listening to the audiobook just now at work and it's just as funny as We Need To Talk About Alan. Brilliant-coffee-down-the-nose stuff.

There has to be a recording somewhere of him trying to end the miners' strike. :lol:

About 30% through Nomad on audiobook - just superb so far.

The bit about what his mum used to say about Sherlock Holmes and Watson got me very strange looks while jogging and pissing myself laughing.

Noticed it was about £17.50 on Amazon. Anywhere offering it cheaper? Couldn't see much on Google.

If you buy the Kindle book version for about £10 then you can add the Kindle audio for around £3. Its pretty cool, if you decide to read it for a bit and then go to audiobook it will sync with wherever you are - works across devices as well. Cheaper than Audible - search for Kindle audio version and you should get the instructions.
