Three men in a boat (Simplifed ed)

'I like work. I find it interesting ...I can sit and look at it for hours.' With ideas like this, perhaps it is not a good idea to spend a holiday taking a boat trip up the River Thames.

But this is what the three friends - and Montmorency the dog - decide to do.

It is the sort of holiday that is fun to remember afterwards, but not so much fun to wake up to early on a cold, wet morning.

This famous book has made people laugh all over the world for a hundred years ...and they are still laughing.
