Summary
Welcome to the 'animal shift' at Kale Moor grocery distribution depot. Under the guidance of Bruce, work here is an endless round of sports and juvenile humour. But a change is due, for their new colleague is not a born games player and is — even worse — a woman. Wildly funny, sharply observed and peopled with vivid, likeable characters, this is another comic gem from the author of Neville's Island.
