About this product

Product Information

Oi, mate, is that monstrosity diesel? From the author of the bestsellers Don't Tell Mum I Work on the Rigs, She Thinks I'm a Piano Player in a Whorehouse and This Is Not a Drill, this is the eagerly awaited next installment of Paul Carter's rollicking life. Take one mad adventurer and a motorbike that runs on bio fuel (cooking oil i.e. chip fat to you and me) and send them with one filmmaker on a road trip around Australia just to see what happens. What you get is a story full of outback characters, implausible (but true) situations, unlikely events and unfortunate breakdowns, all at a break neck pace. Never one to sit still for long, this is what Paul Carter did next. Whether you've been shocked, delighted, entertained, horrified - or all of the above - by Paul's stories whether from oil rigs or the road one thing is for sure, they are always high octane adventures.

  • It's a riot

    The story starts where the previous book, This is not a drill, left off. Pauls style is easy going and will amuse anyone who likes a good laugh and is broadminded (don't leave it where the kids can find it, it may bring about 1 or 2 awkward questions). You don't need a technical background, just a sense of humour and some privacy, because you will laugh loud enough to raise a few eyebrows if read in company. Can't recommend his books enough
