A parody of the classic children’s book We’re All Going On A Bear Hunt, We’re All Going On A Bar Hunt provides a delightfully boozy twist which will appeal to all parents, especially those new to the delights of that rarest of pleasures – a night out!

As our hero & heroine leave the babysitter and head off, they can barely imagine the horrors that await them – “a pub, a groovy gastro pub”, “a cocktail bar, an uber-funky cocktail bar” and more.

It’s a fun little frivolity, and is bound to be sported on more than a few new parent’s coffee tables, to generate a few laughs a la Go The F*ck To Sleep a year or two ago.
