Adrian Chiles: what I have learned from five years of oversharing
Briefly

"In the process of revisiting my columns, I was reminded of how overwhelming it is to read them all at once. Topics range from drinking to death, and everything in between."
"The column about my urinal in my flat became a turning point; instead of discussing my drinking, people now want to know about my home toilet. It's amusing yet odd how it's perceived as sensitive."
"Having a urinal appears to invite more curiosity than my other writings. It's just a small toilet after all, yet it has generated much discussion and surprise."
"Though I cringe at the thought of my columns compiled in a book, I realize that people engage deeply with various themes I explore, despite the oddity of some subjects."
