Peter biddlecombe (384 risultati)

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Dogs tucked into handbags, verbally polluted airline companions, electronic hotel door keys and ridiculous money pouches worn by xenophobic English tourists - these are just a few of Peter Biddlecombe's least favourite things. He has dragged his beleaguered expense account around no fewer than 170 countries of variable merit, and the 20 destinations in this volume include Peshawar, Ulan Bator, Kiev, Palermo, Belize, Mecca - and London.…

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. Living out of a briefcase has become a way of life for Peter Biddlecombe - and his regular dispatches from the front line of international expense account culture have offered desk-bound readers everywhere a unique insight into the strange, bizarre and often hilarious places where business and pleasure meet all over the world. Yet despite all his efforts in this, the age of the virtual boardroom, the lot of the English businessman abroad is still not a happy one. VERY FUNNY is the fifth in the series of dispatches from all over the world in which Peter Biddlecombe recounts his battles to survive the black magic voodoo of 5-star international travel; in which former European footballers of the year open their own high street bank, alcohol free lager is invented to give the good people of Oslo an excuse to enjoy themselves, and the formation dancing team of the Ukranian mafia can register 6.7 on the Richter scale.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. It is a great truth of modern life that businessmen today are the world's most accomplished travellers. Like Marco Polo, the business traveller has a purpose; he is a man with a mission. Not for him a simple trawl through tourist hell - his experiences are authentic, driven by career rather than courier. Consequently, the adventurous nature of such trips is never forced - the Hindu Kush, Amazonian jungle or Kalahari hold no fears for those who have faced the Tokyo underground in rush hour. In TRAVELS WITH MY BRIEFCASE Peter Biddlecombe introduces us to the world of the business traveller, stumbling across the humorous and the bizarre in the most unexpected places - like Switzerland - and generally proving that you don't have to be a student, aesthete or one-eyed skate-boarder to experience the thrill and excitement of exploring the world.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Still convinced that the only true modern traveller is the business traveller, Peter Biddlecombe takes us on another irreverent global tour. He snubs his nose at the 'gimmick tourists', eschews crossing the Sahara naked on a skateboard and carries on doing what he does best - business, all over the world, with a wonderfully diverse range of characters. Power-players in Milan, storm-trooping language police in Toronto, and just general chaos in Kinshasa: a mere selection of the obstacles the international businessman must face as he struggles to get to grips with the local way of doing things. But it's all in the name of commerce, and whether he's trapped in a luxury hotel duirng the riots in Bombay or working his way through a Good Food Guide to Ouagadougou in one of the poorest countries in the world, Peter Biddlecombe usually comes up trumps .not necessarily with the deal he was after, but always with a hilarious tale to tell.…
