About this eBook

'I defy anyone not to snort, howl and recoil' The Sunday Times


'Full of wicked asides, tart observations and sharp remarks that could only have originated in Graham Norton's witty brain.' Terry Wogan


Looking around the room I saw what life really was. It was made up of my passions. I saw my life reflected back at me. People I liked, people I loved, people I had shared half a century with. All the stories of my life were together in that one room and it made me very happy.

Who wouldn't want a friend like Graham Norton? A little bit naughty, full of frank advice, bursting with gossip about the world's biggest stars - but most of all with an emphatic love of life and all its joys, big and small.

Join him - glass of wine in hand, faithful doggy friend by your side - and delve in as he shares the loves of his life.

Very candid, funny and movingly honest look at Graham's transition from his forties into his fiftieth year. I inhaled the book and came away from it feeling I knew him better for having read it. Really enjoyed it and proud of him for renewing his love of Ireland. It was like having coffee with a friend.

If you like Graham Norton you will enjoy his writing as it is quite similar to his TV delivery. Not the best autobiography I have read but definately funny enough to get through
