Living out of a briefcase has become a way of life for Peter Biddlecombe - and his regular dispatches from the front line of international expense account culture have offered desk-bound readers everywhere a unique insight into the strange, bizarre and often hilarious places where business and pleasure meet all over the world. Yet despite all his efforts in this, the age of the virtual boardroom, the lot of the English businessman abroad is still not a happy one. VERY FUNNY is the fifth in the series of dispatches from all over the world in which Peter Biddlecombe recounts his battles to survive the black magic voodoo of 5-star international travel; in which former European footballers of the year open their own high street bank, alcohol free lager is invented to give the good people of Oslo an excuse to enjoy themselves, and the formation dancing team of the Ukranian mafia can register 6.7 on the Richter scale.

Author Biography:
