Amanda Clow-Hewer, ex-Pom, ex-cop and ex-size 12, has an opinion on everything, and you're never left in much doubt about where she stands. She can be funny, bitchy, cutting or outrageous - often at the same time! But love her or hate her, you wn't want to stop reading her.

In 'Pan-Fried Yellow-Eyed Penguins' the popular newspaper columnist casts her probing eye over a wide range of subjects, from men, sport and food, to cars, sex and royalty. There's one thing you can count on: she will never be politically correct.
