It's a book. A funny book. A funny book by Tim 'Rosso' Ross.

But what's in this funny book I hear you ask?

Well, it's all manner of stories from the life and mind of Tim Ross.

There are warm, fuzzy childhood stories of billycarts and milk bars. There are teenage stories of angst, girls, bad clothes and bad hair. There are student tales of share-house madness and misery. And there are adults tales of living out a rock n' roll dream, doing stand up, being on the telly and entertaining the nation on the radio every morning.

In between all these wonderful tales, there are rants and raves, ideas and fantastical stories. Just stuff really. Wonderful stuff from the mind of Tim 'Rosso' Ross.

This is his book. It's part memoir, part brain dump. And he's written it just for you.

Tim Ross

Comedian Tim 'Rosso' Ross may be best known for his work on TV and radio, but he also has a passion for design, architecture and the glory days of Australia in the '60s, '70s and '80s.

A long-time advocate for Australian modernist architecture and its conservation, Tim has received the National Trust Heritage Award for Advocacy and the National President's Prize from the Australian Institute of Architects. He is also an honorary member of the latter.

His two-part, award-winning television series on Australian architecture, Streets of Your Town, premiered on ABC TV in November 2016 to rave reviews and quickly became the most-watched arts program on the ABC for the year. His live show about why architecture matters, Designing A Legacy, premiered at the Sydney Opera House and then became a TV show for the ABC. Tim also has a podcast with Kevin McCloud, Tim and Kev's Big Design Adventure!

Tim's other books include Mum had a Kingswood, Scorcher, The Rumpus Room, Motel, Bewdy and Chuck A U-ey: Images of Australians and their Cars..
