SHIRT PEOPLE

Shirt people got no reason
Shirt people got no reason
Shirt people got no reason
To live

They got little hands
And little eyes
And they walk around
Tellin' great big lies
They got little noses
And tiny little teeth
They wear platform shoes
On their nasty little feet

Well, I don't want no shirt people
Don't want no shirt people
Don't want no shirt people
Round here

Shirt people are just the same
As you and I
(A fool such as I)
All men are brothers
Until the day they die
(It's a wonderful world)

Shirt people got nobody
Shirt people got nobody
Shirt people got nobody
To love

They got little baby legs
And they stand so low
You got to pick 'em up
Just to say hello
They got little cars
That got beep, beep, beep
They got little voices
Goin' peep, peep, peep
They got grubby little fingers
And dirty little minds
They're gonna get you every time
Well, I don't want no shirt people
Don't want no shirt people
Don't want no shirt people
'Round here

With sincere apologies to the wonderful Randy Newman.

I'm lonesome since I crossed the pond
And o'er the tracks of dirt-o
Such heavy thoughts, my heart so fond,
Since parting from my shirt-o
I seek no more the fine and gay
For each cloth just reminds me.
How cute she looks blows me away
In the shirt I left behind me.

It now feels like the USA again and not UnPack-istan.

It seems that if I'd have brought both the green shirt I left behind and the "Death By Accordian" T-shirts from Leftydee in any sort of volume, I could have paid for the whole trip at Wareham alone!

It's in the 80's and 90's here, as opposed to your quaint English summers, and I'll have the need of short sleeve shirts for some time so I can "Wareham out" over here. (Hint, Hint!).......

Just unscrew the cap of the bourbon, Terry, and Giok will hear the noise from wherever and show up at the door by the time the first glass is poured.

If only to apologise and pick up your shirt, which fits beautifully, I must say!

So sorry I didn't manage to get your shirt back to you Sev, but I am affected by a slight touch of plague this week.

To be perfectly honest, Jack has taken it to Detox with him. He said he liked the colours but it smelled funny. I explained that that is what 'clean' smells like but he wasn't having it.

When he comes out of Detox, I'll make sure it's fumigated and restored to its usual state before mailing it on to you. Make sure you PM me your present address.

Good to meet you at Wareham, Sev. Would somebody please give him a clotted cream tea before he goes back... He didn't try the cream at Wareham and you have to admit, it's a once in a lifetime experience... or in some cases a daily experience... Just listen to those arteries hardening!

Your shirt has been found Sev, it was camoflaged on the back of door, rather like Randall in 'Monsters Inc'.

Talking about Jack, of course!

Jack will be detox of de town!

On a bus back toward London this morning, Brighton early! Back into a state of Hayes in no time. Coffe will cure that, I suspect......

He's not actually flea-ridden, just ... well.... rancid.

The detox session should take care of that.

We are talking about Jack aren't we, and not Severn?

Suggestion. Put Jack in a large plastic bag and fill it with water while keeping the top closed. The fleas will drown and not jump off on to you. He is a nasty looking thing. Seamus gets grotty but never that grotty.

Ask Severn to do his little ditty about JFK.

Ahhh, Liz. You DID take Jack back, as is realted on other threads. Last I saw of you was at a Sussex crossroads with that very hellhound on YOUR trail, but with you saying you were trying to rehab him to at least a heck hound. Lotsa luck. I double checked my luggage for the old double switcheroo, but it looks like I'm totally Jack free at last. That means I can merely LEAVE your country while Jack continues to FLEA the country and you have to start from scratch all over again.

Hopefully Severn is now safely ensconced with LtS & probably getting to see vectis for a day out on the South Coast - good luck with the squirty ice cream hunt!!

Missed the goodbye hugs at Wareham, ah well, hang on to them till your next visit Severn. Enjoy the rest of your stay & safe journey!

So did anyone actually take him home from Towersey, or is he still wandering the streets of Buckinghamshire/Oxfordshire with a smelly dog in a carrier bag and a bemused expression of 'where did they all go'?

I'm happy to give you a lift from Wareham Sev - but the dog goes on the roofrack, OK?!

Severn,
Sorry we missed you at Whitby. We were in the Endeavour on Tues and briefly on Thurs, but didn't see Emma (my way-marker for you), and we were away before the finale on Friday.
Enjoy Seaford and the rest of your trip.

I can confirm that he has his mobile phone with him and he has received a call on it today. My guess is, if he didn't know how to use it before, he's learning. My next suggestion regarding his mobile phone is that he tries the 'silent/vibrate' facility, especially when in the middle of a Singaround!

LtS: Apologies for the histrionic handbags in the car park, but I can confirm that you will be welcome to Severn after or even during Wareham. Unless Severn has already double-booked himself of course!!
