My excuse - what's yours

[Michael Palaeologus]

I am in my Hotel room, before I go down to the Bar for pre-dinner Saku beer.

If I were you I would doubt me too but I guarantee it to be the case

I'm as surprised as anyone...

blimey...

[SeanMacGabhann]

Although to be fair I feel bad for talking about it behind his back. He has always been a fairly private person (from what I could tell of his press in the 90s)

I know he is playing full gigs later this year with reformed HoL tho. I guess like a lot of his generation he found things outside raaawk to be more interesting (which means he clearly hasn't played Guitar Hero 2)

Nice guy too

Look forward to that - they put out a new album about three years ago, but it wasn't so good. i think they played our student union in the 80's - them was the days.

Has he done a good job on your windows?? We need to get someone to have a look at our's - some broken ropes and bit of draught excluding needed, but we're scared of how much it might cost - still the novelty of a pop star doing it could be worth it!!

I need one done too. They were overhauled a couple of years ago, but now I have a broken rope.

ill update people when the job is done and finished

SeanMacGabhann,

would the flyer posted thru my door today promoting a window restorer called "The Sash Guy" have anything to do with your man Chadwick ? He hasn't lost his way with words has he.

[SeanMacGabhann]

I didn't even get the gag until days later.

But please, as I said before, should you employ him don't bring the subject up. I didn't because I had an idea he wouldn't be keen to talk about it bit on Day 2 when I was at work someone else did (even tho I told them not to!) and they regretted it instantly

Otherwise a nice guy (ahem) and a great job

[Michael Palaeologus]

So, no chance of him gigging at the next EDF drink then?

Have you had any Coca-Cola today ?

It's a 37 not a 73

Are you dyslexic as well ?

[Alan Medic]

Nette, you obviously haven't read the rules. A 37 IS a '73'.
