										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Escrita por un autor de superventas, esta es la hilarante historia de cómo éste tuvo un colapso nervioso y huyó por el mundo en el QE2. Increíble pero absolutamente verídico, el sensible estado mental del autor le da un enfoque diferente a un viaje alrededor del mundo y los millonarios con los que se mezcla. Un libro de viajes verdaderamente diferente que te hará reír en cada página. Esta es la historia real de cómo el autor curó un colapso nervioso tomando un crucero por el mundo en el Queen Elizabeth ll. Es una mirada al lujoso estilo de vida de los muy ricos desde el punto de vista algo sardónico de alguien que no está del todo cuerdo. Visitamos 40 países y cada uno recibe las observaciones del autor, que casi siempre son humorísticas y están escritas por alguien que tiene un estado mental frágil que hace que arroje al viento toda posible cautela. Pero más que eso, Nick no es un viajero convencional: es arrestado en Nueva York y sometido a una íntima inspección corporal, lucha contra tres asaltantes armados en Jamaica, se pelea con oficiales de aduana australianos, tiene un accidente de moto en Bali, es atacado por dos ancianos en el Taj Mahal y es vetado de Vietnam. Sin embargo, el libro trata más sobre su vida a bordo del QE2: sus aventuras amorosas, su creciente relación con el personal y su estilo de vida íntimo y cerrado, el desastroso concierto del personal que termina en una pelea total, los excesos de los pasajeros súper ricos y las estrafalarias situaciones que solo ocurren a bordo, como la noche en que queda atrapado en la pista de baile con las tres mujeres con las que ha estado saliendo. En general, es la historia de un hombre y su regreso a la cordura hasta que finalmente es depositado nuevamente en el muelle de Southampton, donde su aventura comenzó, solo ahora que no tiene un céntimo y le acaban de informar que todo lo que poseía en el mundo había sido arrojado por la borda al océano. La hilarante continuación está ahora disponible en Kindle: No del todo Cuerdo en América, donde Nick huye a Estados Unidos ¡para evitar a su proctólogo!</p>

					<description><![CDATA[‘Did they handcuff you?’ demanded Daniella, delightedly.

‘You bet they did, handcuffs, hand on head, frantic ride through New York, frog march into the station, the lot’ I said.

‘Didn’t you try to explain?’ asked Paula.

‘No, I seemed to upset them when they were putting the handcuffs on, so I kept quiet after that,’ I said.

‘What did you say?’ asked Daniella.

‘I told them that I usually liked my handcuffs a bit tighter than that.’ The two girls looked at each other and sighed.

‘Anyway, it was all a blur, lots of people shouting and pushing me then all of a sudden I was standing in this room and there was this man in a white coat putting on a rubber glove in a sort of meaningful way.’

‘Oh, they didn’t?’ gasped Paula.

‘Oh, they certainly did,’ said I. ‘I think you’re laughing Paula?’

‘No, no,’ she said but lost control and sat there tears pouring down her face. Daniella had already gone and was lying with her face pillowed in her arms shaking convulsively.

‘It wasn’t so funny,’ I said, ‘when he dunks his hand in that big jar of Vaseline…well, I’m telling you, your whole life flashes in front of your eyes!’ This started them off again and I sat there staring reproachfully at my two Jobian comforters.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Written by a bestselling author this is the hilarious story of him having a nervous breakdown and running away around the world on the QE2! Unbelievable but absolutely true the author’s sensitive mental state gives him a different slant on world travel and the millionaires he mixes with. A truly different travel book which will have you laughing on every page. This is the true story of how the author cured a nervous breakdown by taking a world cruise on The Queen Elizabeth ll. It is a peep into the luxury lifestyle of the very rich from the somewhat sardonic viewpoint of someone who is not quite sane. We visit 40 countries and each one is treated to the author’s observations which are nearly always humorous and written by someone who’s fragile mental state causes him to throw all caution to the winds. But more than that, Nick isn’t your conventional world traveller: he gets arrested in New York and undergoes an intimate body search, he fights off three armed muggers in Jamaica, falls out with Australian customs officers, has a motor bike accident in Bali, is attacked by two old men in The Taj Mahal and is thrown out of Vietnam. The book, though, is more about his life aboard the QE2: his love affairs, his growing relationship with the staff and their intimate, closeted lifestyle, the disastrous staff concert that ends up in an all-out fight, the excesses of the super-rich passengers and the bizarre situations that only happen aboard such as the night where he is trapped on the dance floor with the three women he has been dating. All in all it is the story of a man making his way back to sanity until he is finally deposited back on the quay at Southampton where he started only now he is penniless and has just been informed that everything he owns in the world has been thrown overboard into the sea. The hilarious follow up is now available on Kindle: Going Insane in America, where Nick runs away to America to avoid his proctologist!</p>
