Book Review: Well slap my thigh and call me Roger!
Summary: 5 Stars
World-renowned fashion/lifestyle gurus Maggie Davis and Charlotte Williamson have a lot to answer for. Well, to my local Age Concern shop they do. Before clapping eyes on the intrepid duo, my clothing consisted predominantly of second-hand, ill-fitting shirts; slippers that you would feel ashamed to give to a tramp, and trousers that would best fit a small child - in a nutshell: I was a walking disaster. Maggie and Charlotte changed this. I have not looked back since.
Now, with the arrival of this latest lifestyle bible my life has taken another change for the better. Gone are the days of forbidding my family and friends from entering my home, afraid of them witnessing the decrepit furniture and cheap accessories that adorned the place. After reading this book, I went into my closet under the stairs, grabbed a hammer and began ritualistically smashing my house to pieces. It felt so good... so liberating. I replaced the junk with many of the items mentioned in this book (I won't spoil your experience by mentioning them here) and my life has taken yet another turn for the better. I now hold dinner parties every night and am currently involved with several women, such is my ascent into higher society. I am the envy of everybody I know and, indeed, people that merely pass me in the street. They look on in despair - at their failure to even come close to possessing a fraction of the style and charisma that I now exude. Well, now everybody can achieve what I have achieved - even you! I urge you to buy this book and allow Maggie and Charlotte's personalities to dissolve into your soul. Take heed of their advice. Most of all: don't look back, and let the good times well and truly roll! I know I did!
