Description

‘Spot-on. It’s ideal to read if you’re hiding in your shed on Boxing Day!’ Prima

The ultimate showcase of the quirks, mishaps and traditions that define British life, all rolled into one bonkers season.

Christmas, as we all know, is a minefield. What the hell do you buy your mother-in-law? How to deal with the inevitable arguments provoked by a simple game of Monopoly? And where should you sit at the dining table to best avoid Grandad when he starts going off about politics?

From navigating the awkwardness of marrying into a Presents After Dinner family to the terrors of staying in someone else’s house (especially when they have a weak flush), Very British Problems creator Rob Temple is here to ensure you’ll be invited back next year.

‘Rob pinpoints the elements of Christmas most likely to tip us over the edge, from tactless gifts and lazy house guests to board game tensions or political debate over dinner.’ Daily Telegraph
