*Bob*

The final chapter..

Second bit (hee hee)

Any 'Tom Baker' fans in da house who'd like a little chuckle? Here he is doing a voiceover for a client called 'Symphony'.. the man is a legend. I had to split it into 3 parts to make it small enough to upload.. here's the first part.

The really insidious thing about the Daily Hell is that it markets itself (to 'middle England', whoever that is) as a perfectly reasonable common-sense read for those who can't be arsed to deal with (what used to be called) a broadsheet but feel that a tabloid is beneath them. It's 'somewhere in the middle', many a parent of girlfriend x or y has often said to me, as they stir their tea on a Sunday morning whilst listening to Radio Quiet. Arrgghhh!

Anything to do with Ken Livingstone, usually.

Tut tut, Barryroad.. didn't you know that any discussion of BB is beneath most of those 'on the forum'? There have been a couple of threads about it, but they usually get the 'I've got better things to do' response. Better things to do like (for example) discuss at length whether a shop ought to re-paint its sign, whether the roundabout at Goose Green could look nicer, whether Jimmy Nesbitt has been sighted recently, whether they use organic eggs in The Blue Mountain, whether.. etc

Anyone got the time?

Q. How can the two following be reconciled? 1. Foxtons are the most despised Estate Agent in London 2. Foxtons are the most successful Estate Agent in London A. Avarice on the part of those who drive the market. Ie.. us. My own personal experience of Foxtons has been crap, but they're just another agent, for God's sake, not The Grim Reaper. Just because Foxtons got busted for sharp practice in a whistleblower telly programme doesn't mean it doesn't go on in 75% of other agents. After all, if you're gonna bust anyone in a telly show, Foxtons would be the most satisfying target.

I think this qualifies as a 'slow day' kind-of thread.

Hmm.. Were you looking into his eyes when he told you, Brendan? Do you exhibit any other kind of strange behaviour, like, say, leaping onto a table and barking like a dog whenever you hear the word 'cucumber'?

I can't click on that link. I'm allergic to links to Daily Mail stories. Do you have anything that comes from a real newspaper?

Perhaps you should email the creator of the site, and let he or she know that forum is spelled 'FORUM' and not "FOURM". It doesn't create the right first impression on a home page.

In around a decade there will be a whole new generation of kiddies of the current crop of 'incomer', who's educated/pushy parents will have no desire to leave the area (or be able to afford private school). Their kids will go to the locals schools and the schools will change as a result. Louisa, I look forward to you being cussed as a fancy London 'incomer' on the Ilfracombe Forum. "I plan on becoming a local" HA HA HA

The Phoenix is quite a nice refit (if you like that sort of thing) but unfortunately it's packed full of 'suits' on a Thurs-Sat evening.

I just plain hate it. Apparently, we're all too stoopid to concentrate on an hour-long programme (on one subject) at 10.35pm, and have to be spoon-fed an half-hour multi-story magazine-style effort earlier in the evening. We've already got a shedload of programmes like 'Inside Out' for people to ignore whilst they're doing the crossword.. why do we need another one? And they mucked-about with the theme music - sacrilege.

Whatever that 'thing' on at 8.30 on Mondays on BBC1 is, it isn't Panorama

That is indeed one part of my important remit, Asset. Though I think you'll find that, these days, they're known as 'advertising soundtracks', darling (*mwah! mwah! let's do lunch!*)

Mark, How many people have been banned from the forum, to date?

Does a bat's ear qualify as 'extras' in the world of alternative medicine? I'll take it!

Ooh, I dunno. How much does it cost?

On a CD, on the telly, even at the flicks. It's highly probable that the beastly sounds of *Bob* may waft through your house on a daily basis, like a stale fart hanging in the air.

Go on! I dare you. Honesty, I do deserve it. I've written some terrible stuff which I guarantee you'll have heard and absolutely hated.
