Dads are always the hardest to buy presents for. Do not fear. The perfect solution to your Father’s Day present woes comes in the form of a neat little book called ‘Thoroughly Modern Motoring Manners’ from Debrett’s and Astra.
Is your Dad a backseat driver? Does he complain about female drivers? Does he listen to an obscene array of music? If so, Thoroughly Modern Motoring Manners provides a humorous and pleasurable insight for all Dads this Father’s Day.
Excerpts from the book
Backseat drivers and female drivers
“A chivalrous passenger is as well-behaved and polite in the car as he is when he’s out and about. He realises that jokes about women drivers are clichéd and is never a backseat driver. He’s happy to sit back and enjoy the ride.”
On in car music
“Music should be carefully chosen and kept at a sociable volume and unless you are a karaoke-pro or trying to entertain the children, avoid singing along”.
