I was at Saddleworth on Saturday night in the Wagon pub and saw someone performing there I thought was brilliant, didn't catch his name but he was the most entertaining person I'd seen in a years,he wore shorts and glasses and was very tanned and did a reggi verson of the Wild Rover along with a dance routine as well as several other equally entertaining songs, he really livened my (& my friends) night up. Does anyone one know who he is and does he have any CD'S for sale or how do we book him.

WOW

Book him, and get him to do his song about singers who forget some of the verses in very, very long songs!

Guest, you're missing a full stop on your last remark (and I'm not too sure about the comma). Come to that, on your previous remarks you're missing full stops and capitals.

From: Paco Rabanne

Ah ha!! Raggytash has picked an imposter up as well, VERY confusing! Can't make Baghdad next week I'm afraid, take your scooter coz the club is 18miles from the train station. According to the ticket office you need to change trains at Widnes, Paris, Moscow,Barnsley, back to Moscow (track repairs)Kabul and finally arriving in Baghdad 8days later. You need to be at Bradford station in about 10minutes by the way.

Ted I followed your directions and set off on the train for Widnes last night only to be turned back by the border police at Todmorden as I didn't have the right documents to enter Lancashire, plus they weren't right happy with me wearing me replica Yorkshire Cricket top. So can you cancel the Bagdad gig as I won't get there in time.Thank goodness I wont have this problem in Hull.

Cheers

Oh dear, I have spoken to Mr C. Stevens, the promoter in Baghdad and he is less than happy to say the least!! They have issued a fatwa against you muppet, so I can only suggest that you move to Hull. No bugger would look for you in that hole!

Yo muppett,
          I have asked Hull City Councils Gay Outreach Co ordination and promotion unit to be in the audience, so there will be several thousand there to buy sherries for you! Am I too good to you or what?

Muppett will like that, lots of shirt lifters, they'll be able to swap knitting patterns or show him how to embroider his frocks with pretty design and stitch sequins onto his kaftan shorts.

Nay Clarence I prefer Marmite & Beer stains on me shorts. Wouldn't mind the knitting patterns though as I could take them back to the women's group that have set up a knitting circle at the Community centre I work at. So if anyone wants to bring them along to the event on Dec. 2nd that would be brill.
Cheers for the idea Clarence.
