Peter Kay returns with his most entertaining autobiography yet!
Think of this autobiography as a twelve-month subscription to my memories and meanderings across the calendar year. With each month reflecting a different phase of my life, complete with dodgy decisions, bizarre plot twists and more than a few laugh-out-loud moments.
Peter Kay is back and funnier than ever with his most heartfelt and hilarious autobiography yet. Take a whistlestop journey through his life, in a year. From hitting the gym in January, falling in love in February and a nostalgic trip to Ireland at Easter, to buying his first house in May. Then its summer holidays at Butlins, a September wedding and, before you know it, hes packing away the Halloween decorations and sipping a glass of Baileys in front of the Christmas telly.
With his trademark warmth and wit, Peter offers a unique take on the calendar year in a way only he can cementing his place as one of Britains best-loved comedians and a true national treasure.
PETER KAY is one of the UK's best-loved comedians. He grew up in Bolton before establishing himself on the stand-up circuit, as a comic actor and author.
