Gorgeous George and the Unidentified Unsinkable Underpants Part 1 is a book written by Stuart Reid and illustrated by Calvin Innes. It is part 1 of a series of Gorgeous George books which was released on 28 September 2013 and published by My Little Big Town. It is paperback containing about 134 pages with 16 chapters in this book. It is suitable for 9 years old and above.
This story is about Gorgeous George, Allison and Crayon Kenny who are off to Loch Ness to take part in the World Porridge Championships but the locals are behaving rather strangely. Who wants to eat rabbit poo? And what will it taste like? Grandpa Jock has boil-washed his secret invention; whoopee cushion underpants, and he is hoping these no-nonsense knickers will protect his dainty little derrière on the long train journey up north. What’s inside the talking tent and who can toot the tastiest trouser trumpets? Why are all the lakes in England drying up? Why does the soil smell of wee? And can George write a poem so shocking that it makes a school teacher wet her pants? George may come up with the rudest rhymes he can think of but a saboteur is lurking with pots of exploding porridge. Will celebrity chef Heston Bloomingheck lose his eyebrows in the blaze? And just what have the three American scientists, Professor Marmaduke, Commander Chuck Choppers and Peewee Peterson discovered beneath the surface of Loch Ness? There’s something out there and it wees in the water!
This is a quirky and funny story. If you think your children can handle disgusting and crazy ideas, this will be right down their alley. This story will make your tummy turn and is weird but is humorous. If you have read Gorgeous George books before, you’ll know what to expect as it follows along a similar vein. It is basically stories revolving around the strange and weird with added bit of disgusting and funny ideas! I do find it fun to read and it will definitely appeal to older boys! I am looking forward to reading his part 2! Gorgeous George is available from most major bookstores including on-line bookstores like Amazon (Kindle Version also available) and WHSmith.com as well as the My Little Big Town Store (rrp £6.99 plus postage).

Being a very responsible dog-owner I always scoop the poop, but having 3 dogs, which means 3 balls and a ball thrower, a few bags ready to pop in the bin and gloves which have to be removed in order for the ‘scooping’. The inevitable happened, the glove went in the dog bin. I didn’t notice for a while and when I returned to the bin a few more bags had been deposited so I had to dig around a bit to retrieve the glove. If it had been a cheap pair I’d have left it there but these were expensive winter cycling gloves. ugh!
Passed wind and blamed my toddler son – who piped up and said very loudly IT WASN’t ME!
