A Book of Bits or A Bit of a Book is more than a Bit of a Book and not
just a Book of Bits.On the other hand,it is not a bitty book and it has its 'booky' bits.However . . .
. it really is impossible to describe a Spike Milligan opus,but if you have read 'The Little Pot Boiler' and 'A Dustbin of Milligan' this new one is the book for you (and it's even if you haven't).
