Read how Jesus feeds five thousand geezers with just five loaves of Uncle Fred and two Lillian Gish. Or how Noah built a bloomin’ massive nanny. Then there’s always the story of David and that massive geezer Goliath, or the time when Simon’s finger and thumb-in-law was Tom and Dick in Uncle Ned and Jesus healed her... A very down-to-earth ‘translation’ that brings scripture out of the pulpit and back onto the streets.
‘It certainly is a good laugh while imparting the essential message of the Bible.’
Reverend Stan in The Badge, the London cab drivers’ newspaper

Now working as a funeral celebrant in Essex, Mike Coles was for many years Head of Religious Education at Sir John Cass’s Church of England Secondary School in Stepney, East London. He hated RE when he was at school, and vowed that he would never make the children suffer as he had to! When he moved to the East End, he immediately fell in love with Cockney rhyming slang and started to use it in his lessons. The children loved it, he decided to write down some of his stories and – well, here they are.
