Poetry

The Nation's Favourite Comic Poems, edited by Griff Rhys Jones
Foreword
Pages 13 - 126
As ever in an anthology with such a title there's a mix of the well-known and the obscure, the hilariously funny and the rather damp.
Despite being originally published to tie-in with the BBC's hunt for the country's favourite poem (over a decade ago now!), it's currently available in a 2008 reprint from BBC Books. Although the RRP is £6.99, the ever-wonderful Book People have a collection of six Nation's Favourite Poem books for that price. Certainly worth a look.
