Slightly odd also to have a series devoted to bands - ie collectives that are greater than the sum of their parts - and then end it with a vote for individual greatness.

Great series.. didn't catch the last show yet, though it sounds less interesting than the rest of the show. Flea on bass? Diggety-diggety-diggety-diggety... PUT A SOCK IN IT. Definitely a choice made by 'those of a certain age' who probably only know the name of one bass player.

Indeed.. ten years-worth of local rags from all over the UK have been scoured for minor tales of Fox attack. Local news and radio has been inundated with terrifying reports of people having had foxes 'looking at them in a funny way' and - on occasion - it requiring more than one attempt to shoo them away. I expect there will now be a rash of air-gun and trapping enthusiasts rushing out to save us from The Fox Menace, before driving home over speed humps at 40mph in their 4x4s to feed their enormous carnivorous dogs.

With one (1) urban fox attack of any note to speak of since.. well - since ever - they kind of have a point.

Put several million people together in the same place and all sorts of gruesome things will occur. However, for that pure casual face punchery of the 'you've got long hair', 'I've just finished my kebab', 'you might be a student', 'you're in my line of sight' kind, smaller towns (like Colchester, Swansea and a thousand others) win hands-down every time.

I'm sorry you're still renting, but there's no need to take your frustrations out on the homeowners.

I'm going to move to La La Dreamland where there is no crime and nothing bad EVER happens.

Does such a woman exist? How would she eat? I can only imagine by sliding corn on the cob or saveloys etc from the side.. and nibbling them on the way past her mouth.

I don't mind a nose, but if there's no chin, there's just no way.

Disgraceful stuff, really. She should fall into line with the rest of the advertising and business world and tell the whole truth - and nothing but the truth. A. Winchester, Dulwich.

Standards of reading have slipped as well. It was Steve who said it.

In the interests of good manners you ought to give your colleague first refusal on the sale - perhaps with a few pounds knocked-off the asking as a gesture of goodwill?

Well I am, obviously, but I can't speak for my other half.. we went our separate ways some time ago. I got the bell-end. We're not in touch any more.

I'm the cojoined ones - middle and second from left. We were born joined at the bell-end, meaning all our trousers had to be specially made - at great expense.

Cro-Magnon Man in Europe?

He's English. Anywhere over 10 degrees with 95% humidity and he's done for.

The Overheating BBC Sports Correspondent World Cup - just a week to go! Red-faced Kevin Gearey is still favourite, but relative newcomer James Pearce has just shown his potential on the lunchtime news, turning-in a deeply uncomfortable and clammy performance in full suit and tie whilst standing in an unshaded concreted suntrap under a remorseless South African sun.

Taking Corrie off 'as a mark of respect'? Do me a favour.

I'd like to see a picture of the pottery chicken cooker, please.

the Netherlands, man Like, yeah..

The previous owners left an old Miele here when we moved in.. and it's still here, some years later, chugging away every day without fail. It also has the shelf thing at the top for cutlery, which seems to be a big improvement on the pull-out carrier affair. Actually, I've just bored myself to death.

So the pottery chicken cooker is still available then?

So basically it's just gotta be about cock, cock, cock all day long, like all homosexuals - right?

Before the year is out, I expect Vince Cable will be dismissed from the cabinet for failing to drive with his hands in the 'ten to two' position.

I meant, of course.. Fu Chi Chilli Bean Sauce.
