Paul,

Hundreds of people have promised me pints by post - none ever arrived. I am suspicious about the local postman or they sent them loose.

I am off to follow in the footsteps of Paul MacCartney and perform for nothing in Canada - though I suspect he got better accommodation than I am going to get.

I only hope the separatists of Quebec don't have a down on me like they did on Macca, (he said brushing up his Orcadian Heritage).
