Everyone’s tastes differ but a book that made both my OH and me laugh out loud was Buster’s Diaries. It was supposedly written by Roy Hattersley’s dog - the one that injured a goose in one of the London parks. Remember him?

Depends on your sense of humour.

Almost any of Bill Bryson's travel books - eg - "Neither Here nor There" - though some are a bit dated now.
I remember laughing aloud while travelling alone on a train, when reading one of his books.
.
"Three Men in a Boat" by Jerome K Jerome.

It depends on your sense of humour. OH loved the Wilt books. I tried one and didn't think it was funny at all!!

I had a lot of Tom Sharpe books. They were kept on the top shelf, as the covers were a bit risque, and my daughters were not quite teenagers.

I found out they climbed on a chair, got them down, and read them anyway!

It transpires, despite having many books suitable for their age, they always read my 'top shelf' books, as they were, apparently, more interesting :-0

Paul O'Grady autobiographies. Outrageous and very funny. :-D

I was going to give the same answer as Ginnie has. There were sequels too, I remember the Wilt Alterntive and I think there were one or two more. I embarrassed myself sitting alone on a commuter bus, then bursting into uncontrollable laughter thanks to reading Wilt!

You could try Wilt by Tom Sharpe. I read it years ago and found it very funny. Mind your sense of humour could be different to mine :-D

Any of the Discworld novels by the late Sir Terry Pratchett.

How about watching Car Share with Peter kay. The episode with the monkey that escaped from the zoo. Guarantee that will make you laugh :-D :-D :-D

Make sure you’ve got plenty of ‘soap powder’ in before you start. ;-)

Can anyone recommend a book which will make me laugh so much I might pee my pants please?
