The Up the Creek line-up is buttoned up! We’ve slept on it, rolled it around on our tongues, ripped it to pieces, put it back together again and finally spurted it out on this page right here. Thanks are in order to all the Creekers who participated and commented – your input influenced us immensely. We regret if any of your favourites have been left off the list, but we hope that the new editions will keep you entertained, enlightened, enthralled and coming back for more.
