Wednesday April 2nd
My birthday.
I am thirty-five today. I am officially middle-aged. It is all downhill from now. A pathetic slide towards gum disease, wheelchair ramps and death.
Adrian Mole is middle-aged but still scribbling.
Working as a bookseller and living in Leicester's Rat Wharf; finding time to write letters of advice to Tim Henman and Tony Blair; locked in mortal combat with a vicious swan called Gielgud; measuring his expanding bald spot; and trying to win-over the voluptuous Daisy . . .
Adrian yearns for a better more meaningful world. But he's not ready to surrender his pen yet...

'Richly comic ... stuffed full of humour, tragedy, vanity, pathos and, very occasionally, wisdom'Guardian
'Completely hilarious, laugh-out-loud, a joy'Daily Mirror
