Now many of you will have seen the various threads over the past months on the subject of Public Entertainment Licences in the UK so abley sponsored by Roger Gall known to Catters as "The Shambles". This star of Radio and T.V. has made it big into the "Western Daily Press" a regional paper covering the West of England, from Bristol to Cornwall. As you can or will see (load Damn You, Load !)This was a rather nice colour picture of Roger in the Cove Inn, with the Landlord. Roger made the mistake of suggesting that this could be the subject of a Caption Competition (and come to think of it a Song Challenge) Rather than bury this in a thread on PEL I have taken the liberty of starting a thread for this. Come on - lets have your captions !! Gareth

13 Dec 01 - 04:17 PM (#609203) Subject: RE: BS: CAPTION COMPETITION From: Clinton Hammond Most of the grainy people in this pub tended to look the other way, or pretended to enjoy that guy with his over sized mandolin, whenever Alfonse (pictured background, 2nd from the right) did his "Cat bathing" interpretive dance... "We let him in cause he eats all the stuff that falls on the floor", the barman told us for a fiver, "food or not." The musician was unavailable for comment. Sources close to him (like "Little Boy Blue" aka, "Dark rum, one ice cube") say he's out looking for hair treatment products... "It can't be easy", confided one of the barmaids later in my hotel room, "to work so hard to learn such a goofy instrument, only to be up staged by some wackos party piece. If only all entertainment was as easy as just going off yer meds." Never tire of the road eh? ;-) |

Keep them coming. I will be handing the judging over to Dr Kim Howells our Minister of Culture (who had just rushed out of shot). Just a word of warning from those pictured (and insulted) - "We know where to find you". |
