Full Fathom Five

The joys of ASP are dragging me back to my actual work at very strange times so I am forcing myself to have a break. I was thinking of a random Friday but how would you tell and have I said that before? Gorky's Zygotic Mynci live not far away from us here and they often go to tea with Kate Bush a little like a mad community of famous people such as those in Stella Street but real. keep thinking of Wuthering Heights now just because I talked about Kate Bush. Gaffaweb? Why Gaffa and what does 'suspended in Gaffa' mean? Well if you spelled it right then I might know. Suspended in Gaffer as in Tape. Even then it doesn't exactly clear it up. It all goes slo-mo for a mo mowlan. No, I won't put anything of Molly's in this bit. Or Nora. If you did, all the little white bits of the shell would get between your teeth but Joyce loved her so that doesn't matter does it. I always mistake Joyce for Beckett. Hi there Sean! Beckett here. And there was a Spider who might or might not have been Elvis, living under one of the chairs. Thanguvureemush! That must have been the carfree (and carefree) days of the early 90s. What a decade! I went to Bali then. It is so sad that it won't be the same again. I didn't lose anyone in that bomb so why do I feel so angry about it? The music is beautiful. I was going to live there and sample the music for the rest of my life. Think of that. Trudging the mountain paths with nothing but a bottle of water and a portable tape recorder. With beads in my hair and flip-flops. I wouldn't even worry about the mountain exploding like it threatens to do. That is part of the world but blowing it up on purpose is so bad. Why bother to put any superlative negatives to this. It was just a bad thing. The people who do it are evil or mad or both. Is madness wth a negative outcome always evil? Can you always plead not-guilty through insanity. The worst things in this world can only be done by people who have something different in their heads or is it that we all have something different from everyone else. Ahh! That is the problem of course. We all want everybody else to be like us. I have worked out that if we followed the policies of the most prejudiced amongst us, we would reduce the population of the world to approximately one and he doesn't like himself that much. (Copyright Sue Townsend). The Spanish Inquisition would have to wipe themselves out but nobody expects that at all. Nobody! Six things about the Spanish Inquisition which you never knew. 1. They were not Spanish. Well yes they were. Torquemada was anyway and that is all I want to say about that. 2. Torquemada did not look anything like Michael Palin (Pangolin in Spanish). 3. Four of them came from Basingstoke but learnt to speak spanish in a Whelk Wharhouse off Galicia (Now sadly threatened by the Prestige Oil Spill so no more Whelks boys). 4. They were great friends of Galileo and actually let him out of house arrest for walks to the Video shop. Sorry! That should read Market. They didn't have shops then - or Videos - well only Betamax. 5. The never wore the colour Mauve - because it hadn't actually been invented then. 6. I really know nothing about them at all but you probably guessed that didn't you. Hi Dad. The end has been signalled! Sapphire and Steel have been assigned and of course are nowhere near beng Trans-Uranic. But wheres there's life ... Who ate Douglas Adams' buscuits? Everyone says it was them who told this story first but it never happened to me. Cease and Desist!
