Fifth and last of the Larkin books - rather a flimsy effort compared to the others, unfortunately. By 1970, the formula was starting to show its age, and Bates unfortunately tried to freshen it up by just adding more sex, resulting in something that comes over like a cross between Carry on nurse and Confessions of a window-cleaner. There are a few nice jokes, but not really enough to make this worth reading for anyone over the age of 14. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

' 'No,' ' said Dr Conner. 'You'll have to strap him down,' Ma said. 'You'll have to put the handcuffs on.' And so after a mild heart-attack - caused by rather too much of what you fancy - Pop Larkin finds himself off the booze, off the good food and off the good life generally, much to his own and everyone's else's horror and upset. And while Ma tries to find ways around 'doctor's orders', young Primrose is finding her own way round a rather flustered - not to say flushed - Mr Candy . . .
