The Manopause Manual

About this ebook
What is the manopause? Put simply, it’s a time when men pause. We stop, think, and wonder deeply about life. The fact that we do this while we are looking at sports cars, women, or electric guitars in a shop window, is not the point. Trust me, we are thinking deep thoughts. So here is the guidebook to thinking less, and making the most of your so-called 'midlife crisis'.
Is it possible for men in their forties and fifties to stop reflecting and start to enjoy this new stage of life? The answer is yes - and here at last is the guidebook to making the most of your so-called midlife crisis. You'll discover:
- How to convince your wife you need a new hobby (or two)
- Choosing a hobby based on the complex (all right, simple) male personality
- Cunning ways to get yourself a lad's holiday, away from the family
- Beard or no beard?
- Sports car or no sports car?
- Why a shed is the new sports car
- How to buy, stock and enjoy a shed, and why it should be sited as far as possible from your home
- What can be done about the blatantly contradictory claims made about health, exercise, food, drink, sports, and philosophy?
**Alternative marketing to women married to men in their late forties and fifties**: Find out what makes your man tick! What is he really thinking about when he casts sidelong glances at sports cars and electric guitars? Discover why you should let him have a shed, a beard, a hobby, meet-ups with his pals, and generally have a fun time! The poor chap doesn't enjoy thinking - he needs to be out there doing. That's how it used to be back when his ancestors went out hunting with other men for days on end while you gathered nuts and berries, remember? And if we deny our primate natures,we are heading for all kinds of trouble (or work).

2015 saw the publication of 'The Manopause Manual', an important guide to men of a certain age (but not their wives) about how to make it through this tricky time. Should we get a beard, a sports car, or a shed? Can we ignore modern obsessions with exercise and food? What tips from psychology will help when pitching to our othe half for a lads holiday? The answers are here.His earlier book 'How Not to be a Tourist in London' is now (2015) available as a paperback, fully reviesed and with new chapters. The ebook has also been massively updated. Alleged to be an insider's guide, the curious insights and unexpected facts create an air of uncertainty about how London actually operates. Is it for real?PK's best-known paperback book, You Can Stick It (Dec 2010) is an important milestone in the history of publishing - the first satirical sticker book for grown ups to be produced since the repeal of the Corn Laws. Visit his blog at http://youcanstickit.blogspot.com to look at some example stickers.There's an images-only ebook of 'You Can Stick It' now, so round 70 satirical, surreal and frankly unwise sticker designs can be viewed at a very reasonable price. These stickers are not peelable, however.Munroe's first book, The Thursday Night Letters (2007) outlines schemes and ideas to improve society and make money, generated in the white heat of the innovative furnace that is a London pub on a Thursday evening. Odd but just-plausible concepts were pitched to the Royal family, captains of industry, soccer supremos, and more. The book consists of his letters and their replies. The Guardian called it "a delicious satire" while Peter Jones of BBC TV's Dragons' Den found it "hilarious in the extreme".Now re-named 'The Pub Letters', this is available as an ebook on Amazon, and in all other formats for just $0.99c, from Smashwords
