Synopsis: Staring at 8MM bar in Berlin, this collection wonders what it's like to spend your entire life on the M62. Playful, risque and plain funny, these poems always tackle the important questions. Where does beer come from? Why was Shakespeare fond of gravy? What does it mean where Bedfordshire produces a sweet and sour pasty? Can a smile kill? During the Bradford section of the motorway, the book encounters Titus Salt and enquires about his snooker table. Mark E Smith discusses the Manchester smog and moshes with Alan Ginsberg. Children come and go, wishing for shells, Liverpool and a ready supply of Scootin' Bumbleberrys. And where is Widdop?
