Has anyone read this latest offering from GM? Read the back cover and wasn't sure if its worth £9.50 of my hard earned cash, seemed a bit like its just retelling his stories from his last TV shows. Opinions please .....

had it for chrimbo but my reading is for holidays only

Pretty much what you said Badger, going over old ground already covered in earlier books, and what happened in the last shows.

Got it not read any of it yet

The American bicycle ride is new , I have it and read it , It gives you an insight into his thinking not what the TV people want you to think

So that'll be 'Nigel.......Tea......eh up, must ride me bike.....Nigel....Tea.....hmmm Tea......Nigel.......wheres me bike then......Tea.......' ;) ;)

And er, did you think his insights were particularly insightful? ( in the book obviously ).

Yes summat like that Badger , Oh and he did not like the Fendt tractor , he traded it in for a John Deere

I am reading it now. Yes there is a repetition from the TV Series. Not as good as the previous 2 books but still worth reading.
