Son, give me back my trousers

and other funny columns on family and life

FUNNY COLUMNS TO MAKE YOU SMILE . . .

If you need to find out how to turn teapot cosies into fashion accessories, this is the book for you.
This is a collection of funny columns that have appeared in various Australian newspapers and on John Martin's website.
John Martin is better known these days as the writer of humorous mysteries but this is a nod to his past as a journalist.
If fashion isn't your cup of tea, perhaps rats are. Find out how those beady little eyes live on in John Martin's mind many years after he was marooned on a desert island. Or find out how Beethoven made a kerfuffle refuffle.
These columns are ideal for short reading before bed. He even tells a bedtime story for losing weight.
