The Adventures Of Lord Iffy Boatrace

[Blitzkrieg]

So I bought this book that Bruce wrote in '87 off ebay and am quarter of the way in. Quirky deprived British comedy, so I am enjoying it! Has anyone else ever read it? I will need to track down the sequel (which is much harder to come by) when I am done!

Haha a quick ebay search just now turned up a copy of "The Missionary Position: Further Adventures of Lord Iffy Boatrace" so I snagged it. I haven't seen it on there when I have looked in the past, so I figured I should. Winner.

I've got two copies of the first, and one the second. Not exactly high literature, but good fun.

 

[phlogiston]

What'd you pay for them, out of interest?

 

[Southy]

I have always wanted to read them, but never seen them around to be able to get my mitts on them

 

[TinMan666]

i has 'em both

 

[Shadow298]

was the name Iffy Boatrace ever used in a British comedy show or as a reference because it sounds terribly familiar.

Well put lol.

I paid around AU$40 each, which I figure I could almost pay that if I were able to order them new, so why not.

How much did you other guys pay (assuming you remember)?

 

[phlogiston]

I got the first Iffy Boatrace at release for whatever the cover price was. $16 or something like that. Missionary Position I found in a bargain bin somewhere for $5. The second Iffy Boatrace I got for $10 at a second hand shop.

My brother Mark had a signed copy of one of them, The Missionary Position I think. Started reading it - not very good.

I think I ended up selling it. Or giving it away. I'm not sure. I sure haven't seen it in a while!

 

[Spiff]

You traded it for a bootleg or something.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Bargains! Halfway through the first now, and as I said, deprived British comedy but worth a laugh.

 

[Spiff]

I think you mean 'depraved'.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Hah thats the one! Silly me.
