<p><b>Get the kettle on, the biscuits out and settle in for a belting read.<br><br></b>Let Paddy McGuinness take you back, far, far away from celebrity land, to a two-up, two-down terrace in 1970s Bolton, where he grew up. They were happy times, but money was tight. Paddy slept on a mattress he dragged in from the street, and at 17 he struggled severely with the stress of juggling a college course and two jobs to support his beloved mum.<br><br>But while cash may have been short, grit and wit were in over-supply, and this is the improbable true story of the lad who went from kipping in abandoned cars in Bolton to racing supercars on <i>Top Gear, </i>via laying concrete floors in prisons, a lively career in a leisure centre, a showbiz intervention by school pal Peter Kay and eye-popping adventures in the world of teledom.<br><br>There has been mischief and misadventure, joy and sorry, huge success and unexpected challenges. It''s a lifey well lived, and an unforgettable personal memoir
