I saw you in one of their early gigs, they did a hip-hop version of When I'm Cleaning Windows with you on the uke. They changed the lyrics though to 'When I'm Nailing Bitches.'

Yes, well frankly, the style of music started to get a little too "black" for my taste. Feeling the same, myself and Dr Dre left to start a beat combo playing humourous parodies of popular songs (Dre was a huge admirer of The Barron Knights), but that kind of fizzled out after our van driver (some bloke called Tupac) lured the good doctor away with some frivolous idea of starting some kind of political barbershop movement. :(

so how did you come to be on a cider advert ?

My mate worked as a Life Guard at a sports centre and someone contacted him asking if he knew any Speed Walkers
He didn't, but he said yes & asked If I wanted to do it.

There were two cone headed aliens in the ad and they were pretending to be human, so when we were speedwalking (badly) they were in the same outfits behind us

One of them was definitely Mr Grayson from Harry Enfield, I do know his name but I can't remember off the top of my head
And now I think of it, the other may have been the guy who plays Barry from Watford.

We got 80 quid & a nice meal.

nice one!

thought they might have given you a years supply of cider too!

My maiden name is the same as a very successful Hollywood actress, I love hearing from old school pals who have Googled me.

Apart from when we overheard the Director saying "these speedwalkers are shit"
Still! Time is money and too late to get replacements, oh yeah.

*Reclines & sips Dry Blackthorne Cider he had to pay for!

ahhh what would they know?

Woodpecker Cider is miles better anyway!

do you still live in the Compton area though?

I was in Compton 5 days ago. For realz.

Back on Topic
Do they have Cider in the States Randy?

Yeah, they sell Strongbow and a few other brands. I don't think it's all that popular but women seem to like it more than men.

One of these days I'll try to brew some.

I'm Spartacus.

WTF. Aren't you in Amsterdam?

Yep. :) I have my laptop though.

They named a French port after me. Not the drink you understand as that comes from PORTugal. It's an education on here isn't it.

;) I was on 'Cops with Cameras' trying to hide in 'whellie bin' does that count?

Geez, man! Can't you just sit outside a well placed cafe and ogle the dancing prozzie?
