Media Reviews
'David Baboulene is a seriously funny man with a great gift for story telling. One of the funniest books I have ever read.' Spirit FM 'This truly absorbing and at times astonishing tale will have you laughing out loud... 'Windy' Baboulene has an engaging, informative and gripping style... a real page-turner.' In Touch Magazine 'Interesting, raucous and very, very funny to the point that some bits will make your eyes water. When I got to the end it was like saying goodbye to an old friend. The story on Barbados is one of the funniest I've ever read.' TalkSport 'Ocean Boulevard is an affectionately written biographic account that makes you laugh until you cry. If you only read one book this year make sure this is it!' Hawkins Bazarre (www.hawkin.com) 'David has documented a period of UK maritime history that is sadly now past. A raunchy and hilarious series of adventures and anecdotes.' The Argus
