He's been lots of other things too - temperamentally unsuitable bar staff (grumpy, not talkative), temporary laundry manager in a big London hotel, detail-shop car-wash jockey in Reno, Nevada, despatch runner for a film company in Soho, food critic (not a very good one, basically never met a meal he didn't like. Or at least eat too much of), national newspaper columnist (Scotland's a nation, right?) and a film editor at the BBC. He studied Literature at St Andrews University, and later took a grad degree in Screenwriting at USC. He swims a lot, keeps thinking of taking up cycling, likes forgotten books, summers on the Outer Hebrides, terriers, his wife and his children - not necessarily in that order.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hachette Book Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45018484113584,"sku":"9780316538695b","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2341\/9361\/files\/img_385a8b75-7b44-4541-8819-040aa45c3860.jpg?v=1773966419","url":"https:\/\/pandemoniumbooks.com\/products\/the-two-of-us-at-the-end-of-the-world-9780316538695","provider":"Pandemonium Books and Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
