The Rules for Life Omnibus is Kitty Flanagan's way of making the world a more pleasant place to live. Providing you with the antidote to every annoying little thing, these rules are not made to be broken.

This special omnibus combines comedian Kitty Flanagan's award-winning 488 Rules for Life with her rather prosaically titled sequel, More Rules for Life. Inside this blockbuster edition you'll find rules for every aspect of daily life, such as:

Pregnant women aren't magic lamps; don't rub them. One to two squirts of perfume or aftershave is ample. Never make eye contact with someone while eating a banana. Once a month, hold your yoga tights up to the light and check the thread count. And always, always, remove the lettuce before toasting a sandwich.

Witty, helpful and endlessly entertaining, this omnibus is the quintessential reference book with the power to change society...or, at least, make it a little less irritating.

'Rule no. 1 - Buy this book, laugh out loud, become a better person.' Jason Alexander (Seinfeld)
