Owen :lol: :lol: :lol: I didn’t manage any naughty mushrooms at Steve Hillage..but I tanned a whole bottle of vodka..I was supposed to be sharing it with my pals..but it slipped my mind. I’d promised to bring my brother home a Hillage poster..but was found curled up on top of it in the toilets in a pool of sick. I think I enjoyed the gig :lol:

Mary..I DID used to use laxatives. I would crash diet all week..then on a Saturday night I’d have a big curry. Korma Sauce..Naan Breads..pakora..the works. I’d also have a large piece of laxative-choccy washed down with a big glass of orange-juice. Sometimes I never even made it past the pakora..if you know what I mean…
Don’t try this at home folks :-… -

To wish this is to wish prosperity to keep the house warm for the coming year. It’s also customary to hand over a lump of coal..though most hosts prefer a wee bottle of something…[Read more]
