These books are an ideal gift for the man who thought he had everything. They are not generally available in bookshops because John Slim just doesn't have the time to go round asking if they would like to stock a copy. You can however order copies from this web site — as many as you desire! Click here for the order form.

PS He will be delighted to supply any book shop. Please contact John for details.

Both ROTTEN HAYSTACKS and RATHER ROTTENER have an alphabetical index of first lines - invaluable as starters for any write-your-own-limerick party game. 

VERSE PLACES  brings innovation — because it is a limerick gazetteer of the British Isles, containing more than 800 places and more than 900 verses. 

MULTIPLE BUTTOCKS is based on the theory that life would be far more interesting if, instead of just two each, we had five or 17 or 23. 

FRED FIRST features the unpredictable Fred who appears intermittently in the first four books. It is time he had a book to himself. This is it.

SAUCY SHORTS finds robust humour in the law, the arts, medicine and many other aspects of daily life - each with a chapter of its own.

Rather Rottener, Verse Places, Multiple Buttocks, Fred First & Saucy Shorts follow the rumbustious limerick tradition and are not for the readily offended.

The first three books have a foreword by GYLES BRANDRETH — who hails John Slim as the laureate of the limerick — and are brilliantly illustrated by COLIN WHITTOCK.

Each has at least 228 pages and is bound in glossy laminated card.

THERE are not many of them about! This is a one-man publishing venture limited by the lack of depth of one man's pocket.

Their rarity value is assured — and will be magnified several times over when the remaining VOLUMES appear. 

Their attractive appearance and innovative content have been widely applauded by readers who have got in early. By the time there are eight books, each in a maximum first edition of only 500 copies, they will be a much-sought-after prize by not only students of the limerick genre but book collectors generally.
