Book description
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 instalment 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 breakneck 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.
