[Ipswichblade · Rating 4 out of 5]

I have the first six books in the series from many years ago and only recently realised there was six more so reading them in order. They are from Private Eye and are spoof letters from Denis Thatcher written to his friend Bill. Very funny as Denis comments on the issues of the day while making sure he drinks a lot and plays golf
