Miss you loads (as I'm sure you can understand), but I have a wee problem.
We've missed you too, Rod. I mean that. Sorry to hear about your problem. Have you read "The Water Method Man" by John Irving? That might offer you some tips on how to deal with these uncomfortable infections. Keef "Back by dope demand" Watson wrote:
Tag said about how Limahl used to be shacked up with the only other world's leading authority on popular music (the other being the >Duke), Paul Gambaccini. Can anyone confirm this?
Are you calling me a liar, Watson? Of course it's bloody true - just like the fact that Jimmy Corkhill was shagging Fred the weather man is true. You've got a nerve, pal, you don't talk to us for weeks, and you ponce back as if nothing ever happened, and immediately start throwing your weight around, casting aspersions about my honesty. Paul Gambaccini had a great jingle (Limahl obviously thought so), it had saucy girlie voices going "Paaauuul Gamba-cheeeeenneeee" in husky tones. Keith also admitted:
We've fucked all the plans over properly and decided just to have a big party in Glasgow - over New Year.
Sadly, it's true. We may return to the idea at a later date, but people kept saying "oh, not this weekend, not that weekend, etc etc...", so rather than disappoint one or two people, we decided just to piss you the lot of you off. However, in my defence, can I just remind you...Smile, me DJing with glorious unprofessionalism and considerable taste, this Saturday, Star and Garter, Fairfield Street, Manchester, Entry two of your British pounds. And there may even be other goings on nearer Christmas if the Dandy Don, Emma (the Danette??) and myself get our act together. Stephen "back demanding dope" Trousers wrote:
Megan was going on about some song about Julie Christie. There are a couple of others: firstly it is widely thought that the "Terry and Julie" in Waterloo Sunset are Terence Stamp and Julie Christie, who were starring in some Polanski version of Thomas Hardy at the time.
Barry Norman's job (and mine for that matter) is safe for the time being. Trousers, what are you wittering on about? Our Roman's Thomas Hardy interpretation "Tess" came out ages after "Waterloo Sunset" and starred Nastassja "Ich habe ein brand neu Combine Harvester, ja?" Kinski. She was my third ever crush after Nyree-Dawn Porter in "The Protectors", and Nadia Comenecci. Are you thinking of "Far from the Madding Crowd"? Directed, if memory serves me correctly, by John Schlesinger? Julie was in that. Julie rules. Her character in "Billy Liar" was everything I look for in a girl, and have subsequently found. Finally, the Dandy may have already mentioned this, but someone we know claims that she recognised the Duke, and asked "Didn't he used to be a Goth?" Can it really be true that the Duke of Haringay is no other than.....The Prince of Darkness?
