There is a new Molvania book - I get you "Phaic Tan, sunstroke on a shoestring"

From the writers of the brilliant Jet Lag travel guide to Molvania there is a new book that I noticed in the bookshop yesterday

Phaic Tan - sunstroke on a shoestring.

It does the same thing as the molvania book but for South East Asia.

This is the website. It's chuffin' brilliant.

Yay, another deranged fan! I lent out my Molvania guide to someone and haven't seen it since...will have to check out the Phaic Tan volume.

Chuffin' = new favorite slang. Can you use it in some other sentences, please, so I can try it out appropriately?

chuffin' is a northern expression when one isn't able to use the one that one really wants to.

eg "yes vicar, it did hurt when i just stubbed my chuffin' toe, and that's a chuffin' silly question to boot."
