Book description
'I hereby bet Tony Hawks the sum of One Hundred Pounds that he cannot
hitchhike round the circumference of Ireland, with a fridge, within
one calendar month'
A foolhardy attempt to win a drunken bet led to Tony Hawks having
one of the most unforgettable experiences of his life. Joined by his
trusty travelling-companion-cum-domestic-appliance, he found himself
in the midst of a remarkable, inspirational and, at times, downright
silly adventure.
In their month of madness, Tony and his fridge surfed together;
entered a batchelor festival; and one of them had sex without the
other knowing. The fridge got christened, and they even met the
poorest king on Earth.
An absurd story of an extraordinary adventure, Round Ireland with
a Fridge follows the fearless pair as they battle towards Dublin
and a breathtaking finale that is moving, uplifting, and a fitting
conclusion to the whole ridiculous affair.
Tony Hawks lives in London. He leads a diverse life and has various
'jobs', such as performing stand up comedy, appearing as a panellist on
TV and radio (
Have I Got News For You, Just A Minute, I'm Sorry I
Haven't A Clue
), acting, writing, playing tennis, and making music.
