It was the tunnel last weekend, but exams tied us all down completely. This one is in Selfridges, and we're taking a day out to go down there hopefully. However, Matt is organising-and as Gavin will know from the government he made, it could all go wrong!

Good luck with the day out then :P

I know someone who was a mate of Banksy, when he lived in Bristol, before he, or rather his work, became famous.

By the way, did you know that the main influence on Banksy's style, was Simon Munnery, a.k.a. The League Against Tedium? Actually, he often gets Munnery to speak on his behalf, at exhibitions.

I think he's actually "come out" (not in the zooo way) a bit recently and appeared in a few places in person. I remember being extremely disappointed that he'd revealed himself. If you know where to look on the InterWeb, there are photos (mainly of negligible quality from CCTV and whatnot) of him with his face visible though.

I won't look! Would ruin it!

Yeah, I remember, about 4 years ago, there was a photo of him, floating around the web. Apparently, he'd been asked to go to Jamaica, to paint the outside of a recording studio, for the Ragga artist Buju Banton, and a local snapped him. It should be pretty easy to find on Google.

Seeing as you asked.

Scatters, don't read it. It'll only upset you.

Not being able to contact the doctor to make an appointment. Angry + :(

This is what happens with a top-heavy target-driven government, kids.

Awww you ill again?

I hate going to the doctors full stop... they always tell me I'm morbidly obese (I'm really not).

I think at some point, Aaron's going to have to make the choice: walk in the sunlight, enabling his body to produce Vitamin D, or stay at his computer and get rickets.

You know, I think Aaron's already made his choice.

By the way, morbidly obese? Bollocks*.

*With apologies for swears.

Ha - I know. It does make me laugh! I don't take it seriously - they just have a stupid chart...and even the nurse says I'm fine.

And I exagerated on the morbidly.... I don't need a crane any more to get out of bed.

I give it about five minutes before somebody comes on asking for nudey photographic evidence.

Does morbidly obese mean you eat dead people?

Just me here then. *whistles* *wonders what time Alan C gets up*
