To make matters worse their self-proclaimed arch-nemesis, General Nuisance, and his bumbling assistant, Gelzer Boxman, work on behalf of the Space DMV to track down Dick and Marquis and make them pay for their outstanding parking tickets, all the while having a dizzyingly complicated evil-plan for galactic domination.

Based on over two hundred and fifty psychiatric case files, this book offers a radical new departure from existing historical accounts of what is still commonly thought of as the most picturesque of Britain’s colonies overseas. By tracing the life histories of Kenya’s ‘white insane’, the book allows for a new account of settler society: one that moves attention away from the ‘great white hunters’ and heroic pioneer farmers to all those Europeans who did not manage to emulate the colonial ideal. In doing so, it raises important new questions around deviance, transgression and social control. Sitting at the intersection of a number of fields, the book will appeal to students and teachers of imperial history, colonial medicine, African history and postcolonial theory and will prove a valuable addition to both undergraduate and postgraduate courses.

Having a good old moan about little everyday frustrations is a quintessential part of being British, and when it comes to barmy bureaucracy we can really get our knickers in a twist! This book collects the most mind-boggling and side-splitting examples of potty political correctness, ridiculous red tape and well-intentioned (but ultimately wacky) warnings from across bonkers Britain today. Discover the "infallible logic" that inspired a toy manufacturer to point out to customers that its plastic broomstick doesn't really fly, the "dutiful consideration" that led to sex being described as "cooperative physical fitness," and the "forward thinking" that resulted in a sign advising against hogging the middle lane being displayed on a two-lane motorway. But be warned: this book may induce bouts of uncontrollable laughter and should only be used by those trained in lifting books and turning pages.

Completely Conkers!: What Drives You Nuts about Modern Britain

A laugh-out-loud collection of ludicrous laws, money-wasting council schemes, and ridiculous red tape Have you heard of the country whose schools have banned the use of egg boxes and toilet paper rolls in craft lessons as they pose a health risk (they could be carrying salmonella, don’t you know), and removed pear trees from a picturesque lane because they were too dangerous? No? It’s Britain! Learn how police community support officers giving talks on cycle safety were banned from cycling to schools to give them until they had passed a test and exam; and, after falling in the prison shower, a career criminal was compensated £248,000, including a substantial amount "for lost earnings." If you find yourself grimacing at the stupidity of health and safety gone mad, you’ll love this collection of idiotic interventions and ridiculous rules that have come into play to keep us from harm.
