Keep getting errors about breaching some limit or other when trying to attach a second picture. Anyway:- A top evening started off with free beer at a colleagues leaving do. He had wanted his redundancy (with nice pay off), so it was smiles all round. I also saw some friends who had moved on last year - one of whom had lent me my first Elbow CD and is now pregnant. So there was much to talk about and much free beer to drink. I later formed part of a quartet of Englishman/Irishman/Scotsman/Welshman, so it was really hard to tear myself away from the inevitable rugby banter and free beer (Have

Can't upload pics to hosting sites from work. If anyone is desperate to see them all I can email them to someone to upload. I'll attach the best two (made half size because of attachment space, and one at a time for similar post restrictions) now. A few words to follow (I'm trying to cadge a setlist also). This taken during Puncture Repair.

Good stuff I like the subversiveness of it all. Amazon anarchy!

I confirm you are on the right track with the pants. Ladettes

Good one. Did you ask to see her Plimsoll line? (Edit, for those who need to know what UK pants are, plimsole = sneaker in old style UK parlance. Personally in old style South Wales parlance I would say dap, as in "I was late for games today, so the teacher gave me the dap!" i.e. whacked me on the bum with a sneaker, but dap doesn't fit the joke above.)

How many are old style tiled walls etc.?

They had a good write up and pictures. They haven't been pestering you to set up their West Coast tour yet?

Though whenever I say things like that to the 'sicknote' character who works opposite me, he says that it is not the virus that kills you, but the reaction of the immune system i.e. the fittest will suffer the worst. I don't know what to believe. I am not going to shussshh away my semi-tame garden robin anyway (I am not yet on French kissing terms).

M. Chris is segregating the compound as we speak.

Not any more

You have my full support. You are still well out in front as this season's VC MVP, though you did drop a few points by failing to get the first spot on the grid this morning. Keep up the good work!

I am standing to attention like this.

Gawd Bless 'Er!

'hobbits feet' (oh, and I Yahoo just to be different)

Time for your second breakfast and a pipe of weed?

You got a CD Times deadline and planning on a bit of plagiarism or something?

Agreed, I can see both angles. He was probably lamenting the past Wilco drought. Maybe he should now start polishing his helmet, so to speak, in anticipation of a visit.

Hold your horses! It's tonight! Bit cloudy but still warm, so I think it will be alright.

Froggie is Australian and has Wilco withdrawal syndrone. He often makes a plea for a tour down under, but has been banging his head against a brick wall for some time. Luckily he has his Ned Kelly helmet on, so there's no harm done. Come to think of it, that news might just make all the difference - Glenn might like the idea of bashing Froggie's helmet ( ). Some strange percussive noises possible from that experiment I'll wager!

I think I saw one of those in that cafe bar scene from Star Wars.

Yes, I was almost wriggling on the floor with froth coming out of my mouth on Sunday. Luckily you also miss the "hilarious" smug presenters (that Irish guy with the semi-beard and Edith - who is sometimes OK). Not that I know of ...

For those who want to read of Keef's reanimation:- http://www.telegraph.co.uk/arts/main.jhtml.../bmstones13.xml More of the same, but has the line "It is said the only two things to survive a nuclear war would be cockroaches and Keith Richards." "Richards, 62, also disclosed this week that his brain injury had not been sustained by falling out of a coconut tree but from a large shrub."
