Paul came up with an early version of ‘The Da Vinci Code’ at the tender age of 12, and has yet to forgive his English teacher for her opinion that it was ‘trite’ and ‘too far-fetched to engage the reader’.

Many, many puns. He hopes that one day they will be funny…until this hallowed day comes about, he will stick to the criticism and reviews.
