The author "Frank McCrackers" gave it away immediately.
That said, I liked the book by his brother, as its more about getting pissed and having a laugh than anything else.

But to me the parody reads like it was written by Spike Milligan and the Monty Python troupe

Fab - I particularly enjoyed 'died of rain exhaustion'. Reminds me of the Monty Python 'you were lucky, I had to live in a septic tank etc' sketch!

she's written some other stuff as well,
she sent me 2 of her rants on pensioners and cosmetics, and they're great
edit: here's my favourite bit of her pensioners rant- "...and serving us tea in a cup the size of a smurfs bollock."
