Description:
From bestselling writer, podcaster and English language virtuoso Gyles Brandreth, a magical tour of our mother tongue in pithy 60-second instalments.
As fans of Just a Minute know, the key to the game is knowing your way around the English language- how it works, how it's evolved, and how words connect, often in surprising ways. When it comes to the English language (and Just a Minute), Gyles Brandreth has seen it all - and now he's ready to put you through your linguistic paces, to become a Just a Minute expert yourself.
In this wildly entertaining A to Z of verbal acrobatics, Gyles takes you on a whirlwind tour of our mother tongue - from the origins of words and correct grammar and punctuation, to similes, euphemisms and record breaking tongue twisters (try getting your mouth around floccinaucinihilipification!). An idiosyncratic blend of history, word play, anecdote, and hyperbole, all in 60-second instalments, this is Gyles Brandreth at his word-perfect, Just-a-Minute best. You'll never mix your metaphors again...

Love BUT they STINK!!
Color: 26 - Forest Green, Size: King
I have the dark green sheets and would give them 5 stars if it weren’t for the fact that they smell absolutely horrible. I am so surprised after reading reviews that more people don’t mention it?! Maybe it’s more prominent in darker colors but I have washed these now 3 different times even with scent beads and still hate the smell. I wish I could accurately describe what it smells like— it’s just not good and for some reason, body heat only exacerbates it and makes the smell even worse and I wake up feeling like a smell like the sheets… which isn’t a good thing.
Besides that, I do really enjoy them. They feel great on your skin, haven’t been pilling near the foot area (which is what makes us go through so many sheets) and I love the color. I wish the smell didn’t kill them so badly for me ☹️

Very cool
Color: 01 - White, Size: Queen (20" x 30")
This pillowcase is awesome. It stays cool if you get warm you turn it over. It’s cold on the other side. It’s silky but not slippery. Highly recommend these their

Good quality pillowcase for cooling and Skin Care during sleep
Color: 02 - Beige, Size: Queen (20" x 30")
I bought this pillow case specifically for cooling while sleeping during the summer. It works pretty well and also replaces my satin pillowcase used to keep my skin in hair intact. I can recommend this pillowcase if you're looking for cooling and sleekness during sleep.

Very slippery
Color: 01 - White, Size: Queen (20" x 30")
UPDATE: the sellers saw my poor review, reached out immediately, and made things right. Excellent customer service!
I hate this thing. It’s sort of slimy and the pillow case slides all around over your pillow. Would not buy again.
