Do you remember (schooldays) those made up book titles.....
The Cliff Top Tragedy by Eileen Dover, and The Bus Conductor by Miles Standing

Well, how about we make our own up, and give a bit of info about the type of book.
So, my offering....
I am presently immersed in a book of handy gardening tips 'Keep That Garden Watered! ' by Tilda Ranecums.??

Naughty sulis! When I was young, shy and as green as the hills a male colleague came up to me in the children's book department and asked me if I stocked 'Biggles Flies Undone'. I smiled politely - he was a bit of a git.
