Anyone who follows Gerry Adams on Twitter will be well aware of just how bizarre things can get on his account.
The Sinn Féin leader regularly tweets about his teddy, his rubber duck and Cadbury's Creme Eggs, which makes him either some sort of satirical genius or slightly unhinged.
The good news is that if you can't be bothered going back through his timeline to dig out the funniest, there's good news on the horizon: he's releasing a book that collects his best tweets.
'My Little Book of Tweets' will be published by the party bookshop on January 29th and will cost €8.99 plus shipping. The blurb reads: "His tweets range across the political and the personal, the serious and the humorous, often featuring rubber ducks and teddy bears! This little book shows the lighter side of his personality and allows the reader some insight into his private life. The inevitable selfies are included showing that many years experience of politics have taught him not to take himself too seriously!”
Even the cover is quite something:
Below are a few tweets that should definitely make the cut:
