Member Since
November 2020


Lee Prescott was born in Liverpool, England, at the height of Beatlemania. Much to his disappointment, being unrelated to any of the Fab Four (DNA test pending), he found himself having to be educated and gain employment status, achieving the former at the Universities of Leeds and Strathclyde and the latter through a quarter of a century working in information technology. While not aimlessly wandering around the world’s mountainous regions, Lee lives in Glasgow, Scotland, with his family.

Still daft and twee and the culprit is broadcast a mile off but has a bit heart and some deft touches of dry humour, much better than the 1st one.

This one is hard to separate from Vance's current position but putting that to one side I found this an entertaining read, if a little repetitive in its narrative. However, despite the character arc in the narrative I came away feeling this book didn ...more

An easy enough read, but if you are a fan, and I am, then you would have heard the jokes in this book before on Parky or one of his classic specials. About two-thirds in to this book Billy admits this book was written by audio-dictation, and it reall ...more

Bono by Bono

Despite the music and his undoubted good deeds Bono doesn't do himself any favours with this book. Purple-prose laden, full of dull anecdotes around meeting those he admires and there's little revelation of some of the rock-n-roll excess that would h ...more
