Was released 1st of October 2009 from Picador Australia (The high class sister to Pan Macmillan) for $29.99

Tony Martin has explained the mystifying title to his new book is a reference to "Occasional Tables". The title is a phrase which he unsuccessfully tried using while working in radio advertising and got him fired from the account.

Following on from the dubious, but resounding, success of 'Lolly Scramble', comedian Tony Martin returns with another collection of tales from his life outside show business. You'll be both amused and appalled as Martin establishes his own junior detective agency, discovers his parents are censoring bare breasts from the National Geographic, has his braces repossessed by the government, ruins several plays in an attempt to find a girlfriend, gets caught two-timing his local video shop, mars an awards night with a burst of foul language, attends a racist dinner at an Indian restaurant, allows cameras to enter every bodily orifice, and returns to his hometown to discover that his grandfather is not the man he thought he was.
