Back Cover

Before he suddenly became 'unbusy' Jeremy was on our tellies showing us what the World According to Clarkson looked like. Thankfully, he never stopped writing about it and in As I Was saying . . . Jeremy has once more hunted high and low for those vexing imponderables upon which he likes to be vexed when he takes to pondering. For example: why do the Germans mildly dislike British taps? is jet lag the reason we'll never have world peace? do the old really mislay their funny bones? is chewing gum the world's most ridiculous invention? With lashings of wit, spoonfuls of silliness and a healthy dose of uncommon sense, Jeremy tells it like it is and as he would like it to be.
