From the Canals Mailing List a couple of months ago:
You're all so very kind that maybe now it's the time to announce that One
Man and a Narrowboat; Slowing Down Time on England's Waterways will be
available from all good bookshops in the spring.
However, this announcement comes with a caveat for the book is actually a
reprint, with a new cover, of Fruit Flies Like a Banana which many of you
have already bought. True, it is a comprehensively revised text. There are
new bits and some of my more.... err... hysterical outbursts have been
quietly binned. Even so, anyone who has read Fruit Flies would be
disappointed they weren't getting something new and I'd be sorry for that to
happen. Especially since this is a decision of the publishers over which
I've got very little control.
However, some of you who haven't read FF might like it, and those that have
might be curious as to what I'm least pleased with and have axed.
