Roddy Murray has something to say. About a life full of mishaps, varied and various. Brushes with death he’d like to recount, truths and untruths he’d like to get off his chest. He’s no celebrity, but he has stories to tell. So this is a memoir… of sorts.Of primary school corporal punishment, seasickness, sunburn and hungover days on the Isle of Lewis. Of being a Bastard from Hell punk and a Dreamboy with Peter Capaldi and Craig Ferguson at Glasgow School of Art. Of illegal firearms, vans with vendettas, dodgy boats and a spectacularly good potato peeler.Murray is the embodiment of an essential human survival skill: our ability to laugh in the face of adversity, or even just embarrassment.
