Book excerpt: Out of their depths and out of their minds, The Dog’s Rollocks is the antidote to all those tales of daring-do by fearless indefatigable Supermen and women that leave one feeling woefully inadequate and semi-suicidal. Instead, it charts in a sometimes surreal diary the disastrous real-life journey of one middle-aged, middle-class, couple, along with their overweight Labrador, to escape mid-life crisis and join the ranks not of the ‘lame-arse, self-effacing, giving-credit-where-due deities of yore’ but the ‘hip, happening, limelight-hogging arrogant immortals of today’ by attempting to row the two thousand kilometers from London to Lisbon in a self-built Ozark float boat.
