Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Told with characteristic warmth and humour, David Jason reveals the hard-won wisdom of a life doggedly led getting through one day, looking to the next, and always chasing what's new on the horizon.
Throughout his remarkable career, David's north star for navigating life's challenges has been his positive outlook and his resilience. Sometimes, art has seemed to imitate life. 'This time next year, we'll be millionaires' was what his iconic Only Fools character Derek Trotter once said. Such a dream was almost unimaginable for David growing up in a working class family in North Finchley in the rubble of the Blitz. But David’s never-say-never spirit could not be dimmed.
From a trainee electrician to national treasure, David’s bumpy journey to success has overcome obstacle after obstacle. Candidly revealing the ups, the downs, and the roundabout turns, David’s book will uplift, entertain and inspire readers, offering an essential, unvarnished primer to leading a good life.

Excellent listening

This book has helped me at a most difficult time in my life.....undergoing chemotherapy. It took me away whilst sitting for hours on end as the treatment took place.
Thank you, thank you.
It is funny, thought provoking, relates to times I remember back in the 60's and 70's. It helped me escape my current situation in a gentle and relaxing way.
5 stars!
