What Rhymes with Millsy?

The best of the 6PR Poem in an Hour challenge. Every Friday, for more than two years, Mick would turn up to radio station 6PR as part of the Breakfast Show and be given a topic. Listeners would call in and provide him with related words and Mick had an hour to go away, write a poem and then come back and recite it, finished or not. The book contains the best of these poems and includes a CD with the actual on-air recordings. To order your copy, email Mick.
