Comment: This book is in good or better condition. It has no tears to the pages and no pages will be missing from the book. The spine of the book is still in great condition and the front cover is generally unmarked. It has signs of previous use but overall is in really nice, tight condition. Shipping is normally same day from our UK warehouse. We offer a money back guarantee if you are not satisfied.

Aleksandr Orlov has become one of the most loved figures in British culture and his catchphrase - Simples! - can be heard from the playground to the office. Written in his inimitable voice (as dictated to his sidekick Sergei), his autobiography will offer the same humour as his TV ads, giving us the full story of his ancestor's Journey of Courageousness from the Kalahari to Russia, the low-down on his life as entrepreneur and founder of comparethemeerkat.com and his love of grubs and cravats. 'My name is Aleksandr Orlov. I live and make work in Moscow. I have a success business. I have a mansion decorate with many fine things. I have a naturally majestic posture. But I would have none of these things if it were not for my family. This book is dedicated to them. I also wish to inspire next generation of young businesskats. I am hope that this book will show what can come of courage, hard work and a good fur-care regime. I am also hope that with royalties I will be able to re-marble roof on Orlov family mansion'

This book has sold more copies than Tony Blair's autobiography! That's enough said really, Alexander is a legend. Good funny read, great value at a fiver.

 Good fun.

Absolutely brilliant loved it, always liked the ads so had to have the book, im sure anyone that buys this book will find themselves reading it in a certain accent, dont think i'd feel the same if Gocompare bring out there own version.

 MEERKAT MADNESS

OK! Not the greatest book ever written but, it is a laugh. Meerkats are a loved creature. This book will be annoying to some but, loved by millions! Come on, it is only a joke.

 silly and sweet

ok, i admit it, I couldn't help myself - I enjoyed this book. If the adverts make you smile then so will this. Not a literary great but it'll cheer you up and it's a perfect stockingfiller.
