Description
This book describes 40 British traditions, similar to Bog Snorkelling and Nettle Eating, that I can guarantee you will NOT find anywhere else. The reason I know this is because I made them up.
The big question is: are the real traditions more ridiculous than the made-up traditions? If you like British humour this might be the book for you. Or it might not.
All the stories in this fun book are short, distinct, and can be read independently; this is a book for the busy individual who has a spare five minutes to discover the secrets of Biscuit Rolling and to realise it would be easier and warmer to roll biscuits than snorkel in a bog.
This unique book might make you chuckle, laugh, or even smile. It could even make you happy.
Take the 40 traditions at your own pace and as you read, try and imagine taking part in these events.

I really like this book: it is entertaining and full of humour and curious stories of British tradition.
I recommended it if you want to be entertained and learn about some curious traditions at the same time
Many thanks to Netgalley and BookGoSocial

Any book that includes a 'Squirrel containment officer' is a book I know i'm going to enjoy. I so very much wish that all of these traditions were real because I would make it my mission to go and watch each and every one of them and take photos!!
*Huge thanks to Julian Worker, BooksGoSocial and NetGalley for this copy which I chose to read and all opinions are my own*
