Rock Paper Slippers

<p>Rock Paper Slippers is a nostalgic look back at growing-up in the 60s 70s and beyond and laughs in the faces of our preposterous younger selves. It’s an unapologetic memoir that runs from childhood memories to mid-life crisis and safely out the other side whilst tapping into all of our pasts along the way.</p><p> </p><p>It’s a book for anyone who has ever sniggered at references to Mrs Slocombe’s pussy dreamed of scoring the winning goal in a cup final written their initials on a record label or stood in front of their bedroom mirror strapped on a cricket bat guitar and sung ‘Gonna Make You A Star’ into a hairbrush at their pouty reflection. At the forefront of all this growing-up business is an obsession with pop music: buying it loving it falling out with it making up with it again and eventually having the audacity to play it with real instruments in front of real people.</p><p> </p><p>Written with humour and a smattering of touching frankness Rock Paper Slippers may be one man’s journey to his middle years but it forces you to recognise and celebrate your own glorious odyssey too.</p><p> </p><p>Recognise your age turn another page it’s a middle-age rampage yeah!</p>
