Rather than being clever and getting published, I just realised my own insanity by this morning having dyed my hair to make it darker, scrubbed my bath with bleach to make it lighter, used tinted gunk to make my skin a shade darker, painted my nails one shade lighter and am about to paint a cabinet a different colour. What the hell?!

And when did you first become aware of this paint/dye obsession? Were you force fed different shades of yoghurt as a child?
I've had a great idea for a TV show
I spend time with various bushmen and tribes people in remote places in the Amazon jungle etc
Not to see how they live and hunt and stuff
But I basically just act like a total dick while I'm with them
So when one of them is stalking a dear or something quietly and is about to fire an arrow at it - I would run up behind him and kick up up the arse and staring screaming and shouting to scare it off
And I would take loads of booze with me and get completely pissed and try it on with the elders wife
I'd also take a big ghetto blaster and about 3 in the morning whilst everyone is fast asleep is start playing the Sex Pistols at full blast
I could throw rocks at them when they're in they're canoes etc etc
And just generally act like a total cock until they threaten to drag me deep into the jungle and stab me to death with sticks
I had a similar idea but in Birmingham city centre.
If I see that arsehole Blair for one minute more on TV, the screen gets it.

Has Give Us A Clue been on Challenge again?

It's an extension of my blog on forgotten British TV shows, but this one is looking at Children's TV shows in particular. It's a bit niche, but if you grew up through the 1980s/90s you might find it of interest.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01DGS47EM - please note it should be available for free for a few days from tomorrow.
I'm planning a series of these books, so there should be a few more throughout the year. And there will be a 'Forgotten Sitcoms' edition!
I bought your book by accident, when I clicked buy now, I thought it would add it to my basket but after clicking the button, it said thank you for your purchase, it will be delivered to your 2nd Kindle device?! I'm not even sure what my 1st Kindle device is?? So confusing.
But anyway, there you go Ben, another sale.

I'm glad this happened to a bloke like you...and not only to technical eejits like me.
Oh look, Ben's book has a very nice customer review!
I think I'll skip this one but I'm very interested in the "forgotten sitcoms" one. Very looking forward to it.

What's being handsome got to do with it?
I just had to Google the age of a cartoon character to check if I'm a paedo for fancying him.
Everything is fine.

I've got no idea how the buying process works. I would have thought you had to confirm purchase. Amazon seem a little mercenary though. I can only make it free for 5 out of 90 days unless I go to great lengths to get it price matched for free elsewhere. Anyway, the 35p I get from your purchase is much appreciated, Lee.

Well done Ben.
How though can you write about "Forgotten Sitcoms"?

It's a tough process, but they're only forgotten by the majority. A die hard few still remember them!
