About this ebook
If you are looking for entertainment, humour and wit, then this is the book for you. The short stories are scintillating, funny and diverse: satires on the recent 2012 Olympic Games and Bollywood, amusing thoughts on Australia, a strange language Virus, a chocolate junkie and childhood. If you don't find yourself laughing, then one of us has a poor sense of humour! The serious essays include reflections on Donald Trump, the abuse of the English language and some personal experiences. This is just the book to have on a long, boring journey.

I have an honours degree in Mathematics from the Open University and taught in Scotland before gaining an M.A. in English Literature. I taught English to O Level International GCSE Cambridge students for 14 years in Pakistan and was Head of Department there. My Haiku on Cultural Diversity is published in UNESCO’S Cultural Report 2000. My story of Big Samson The Big Lion (in a much shorter form) was accepted for publication by Oxford University Press, but never published for technical reasons. Currently, I have published about 12 e-books on the teaching of English, novels, short stories and poetry. My Spelling book was ranked number 1 in its category on Amazon. My interests include chess, badminton, bridge and astronomy. (Pervaiz Salik)
