Have you heard the one about the codger who fed his greyhound his heart medicine to make it go faster at the track What about the bloke who was growing six-foot ears of corn in his ute Or the penny-pinching Scotsman whose last request is to be buried upright Everyone has a mate like this. The one who props up the bar, telling tales, tall and true. Ryle Winn knows more of these yarn-spinners than most and he's a dab hand at it himself. He's spent a lot of time listening to bilge artists bend the truth, and even more time trying to straighten it. In his latest collection, Ryle brings together the best cock and bull stories from the local pub, the sale yard, the track and his own remarkable life. So pull up a bar stool, cop a squat and get comfortable for tales so unbelievable they must be true.
R.M. Winn has a swag of books to his credit, including High Tides and Hard Rides, When a Tree Falls, Behind the Bike Shed, Rough Diamonds and Real Gems, True Grit and Dry Wit, Out of the Blue and Up a Hollow Log.
