		<description><![CDATA[Soviet Hen Coops is the latest bestseller by blockbuster paperbackist Pebblehead, a sweeping and magisterial cross-cultural history of poultry under Communism. On the face of it, this seems an unlikely subject for a book which has been flying off the shelves of airport bookstalls and has, in the past week alone, earned Pebblehead more money [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Critically important advice, in my cupboard at The Dabbler, on correct apprehension of the dimensions of sea beasties. I claim no credit, as the piece is basically a paraphrase of Pebblehead, from one of his innumerable bestselling paperbacks.
Over the years, many readers have written to ask if there is any truth in the rumour that, [...]]]></description>

Well, I don’t, Tim, but I know a man who does, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Father Ninian Tonguelash, the Jesuit priest and self-styled &#8220;Soutane-Attired Nemesis of Sea Monsters&#8221; who appeared in my dream yesterday, was, I would have you know, a real historical figure. He is often thought to be fictional, probably because the only reliable biography we have of him, by Pebblehead père, was published in the form of [...]]]></description>
