A serious manual on how to Bombproof your Horse has won the prize from The Bookseller magazine for the oddest book title of 2004. Runners up were: Detecting Foreign Bodies in Food (2nd Place) and The Aesthetics of the Japanese Lunchbox (3rd). Also in the race were Applications of High Tech Squids (john - do you have a copy?), Sexual Health at Your Fingertips (Bloomers?) and When Horses Reveal Themselves.

Past winners include:
Proceedings of the Second International Conference of Nude Mice;
Oral Sadism and the Vegetarian Personality;
How to Avoid Huge Ships;
227 Secrets your Snake Wants you to Know
Celtic Sex Magic: For Couples, Groups and Solitary Practitioners;
Design for Impact: 50 Years of Airline Safety Cards
Hot Topics in Urology.

My favorite though: The Big Book of Lesbian Horse Stories (winner 2003).

So come on folks, we might not be on to a booker but I reckon we can give these a run for their money.
