Simple explanation is that it's just savaged somebody to death and eaten them raw.

:D

He looks a sad little mite.

Aww, he looks like he's sitting on someone's laundry. He's probably a happy doggy.

Maybe he's trying to drop the hint to his owner.

A bit tired this morning and an odd feeling in the throat. Hope I don't get ill now that the weather seems to become fantastic.

By the look of your avatar Gordon you definitely need to get more vitamin D into you.

This photo was taken after some bastard stole my ring...I was in low spirits at that time. ;)

Sad. A guy who I met just the once but orchestrated one of the best days of my life died yesterday. He was only in his 40s.

He helped run a Frankie goes to Hollywood fan forum and in 2004 he fixed it so a few members could meet with the band during rehearsals at the Prince's Trust concert at Wembley Arena.

A few days ago you posted about a cancelled FGTH interview.

Yes. That's now happening this Saturday - it was confirmed yesterday. I'll probably dedicate the show to my friend as Nasher knew him too.

Regarding the show I'm hoping it will go well because I'm trying to make it different to the other ones he's been doing. For instance I'm going introduce a mini-quiz and play songs from his past like the first record he ever bought, a version of You'll Never Walk Alone sung by Frank Sinatra which was always played as a child when he got his Subutteo set out etc. He won't have heard that in years I suspect.

I'm also taking in vinyl copies of albums that were important to him during his youth such as Hunky Dory by Bowie to use as visual prompts. The questions I will ask will be a little bit more obscure generally speaking but I'll obviously have to cover the banning of Relax by Mike Read in '84.

The plan is for him to play three songs live and I'll throw a few more surprises in along the way. He's 50 in a few months and I wanted to cover as much of his life as I could in 2 hours. :)

Never tried this line; never got this far. Women always slap my face when I'm doing this:

Sounds really good. Hunky Dory is one of my faves too.

Sooty often asks me why he's not a hot shot writer like me. I think the above says it all really Pleased

I decided to ban myself until I managed to write a play and have it performed. The play is written and has a fair chance of being performed in April. I've slightly jumped the gun maybe but the writing of it was the main thing. But it may be I never get it performed so it would have been a life time ban! Or I was caught shagging a sheep half way up Snowdon and have been doing time since. The latter I know being the more believable.

I can't believe it's illegal...stigmatised maybe (what an intolerant society), but not illegal. "Baaaaaaaaa"

"Baaaaaly legal" - ewe want it, ewe got it.
