"I love these books - these are like factoids on steroids ... Brilliant." -- Chris Evans "Fascinating ... The answers to the questions you never even thought to ask." -- Daily Mail "Intriguing, hilarious and downright surprising little nuggets of information." -- Daily Mirror " Funny You Should Ask... [...] is by my reckoning the 17th book released under the [QI] banner so far. It's also one of the best ... it's both genuinely useful and endlessly fascinating." -- Spectator

    The book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.
