About this listen
This is Limmy’s second book.
It’s a whole load of new, odd, and hilariously grim short stories.
Tom is in a soft play with his daughters. He’s bored. He’s so bored he can move things with his mind.
A man fills up a mate’s biscuit tin without ever telling him, to see what happens.
Maggie’s boyfriend Iain bought a curtain. It keeps attacking them. She wants it out the house.
A man is sitting in his wheelie bin at two in the morning, and he wants to tell you why.
Kenny’s mate Scott is suicidal and ridden with guilt. Kenny takes him on holiday to Benidorm. It’ll be some laugh.
Praise for Daft Wee Stories:
‘The comedy book of the year.’ – Time Out
‘Funny, peculiar and original.’ – Guardian
‘Didn't realise pieces of paper with no pictures on could be so funny. I mean I was cryin’ all day yesterday into this book. Hilarious’ – Someone on Amazon
Critic reviews
‘Short stories shot through with anxiety, guilt, depression, delusion and jet black humour’ Daily Telegraph
Praise for the author:
"Daft Wee Stories will sate Limmy's existing fans and proves once again that his wickedly anarchic sensibility moves effortlessly between media." Chortle
"Disturbing yet very, very funny, it's a shocking, scathing delight." Sun
"So good they'll make you snot yourself laughing." Scotland on Sunday
"
"The tales he treats us to are indeed both daft and wee; happily, they’re funny, peculiar and original, too." (Guardian)
Where does That's Your Lot rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Comedy-wise it was good.What was one of the most memorable moments of That's Your Lot?
The final story was my favourite but it would be unfair to give away plot lines.What does Limmy bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Definitely the accent. I categorise this alongside the Alan Partridge and Steven Toast audiobooks in the sense that it really has to be in the characters voice, especially when it comes to sound effects.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Listened across two days but likely would have listened in one if I hadn't started it so late the day before. Saying which, with all of the paranoid inner monologue and surrealism, perhaps I was better spreading it out like I did.A good follow up

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Sure, because I have other Limmy fan friends.If you’ve listened to books by Limmy before, how does this one compare?
I thought the stories in his previous book were funnier, what's the point in writing a story that doesn't make sense if it's not funny? Quite a few of the ones here just weren't funny.What does Limmy bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
His voice and pronunciation, saying it how it was supposed to be said.Any additional comments?
Though I didn't LOVE this, I did like it and I do love the printed version that he signed for me. I'm a big Limmy fan and will continue to be.I love Limmy... I didn't LOVE this...
