When I was a kid I always thought my Irish grandmother was calling me 'horrid'. may not have been far from the truth, actually - I was a bit of a brat!!

My dad told me that when he was a kid, he thought God's name was Harold...

You know: "Harold be thy name..."

It isn't? What is it then? Now I'm confused.

First the truth about the tooth fairy, then Santa Clause and then the easter bunny and now this, what's next.

Fair dinkum, Howard! By Neddy K....

I keep hearing bizarre news reports from down under...a lady surviving being stuck in her car for eight days with broken bones after launching it off a cliff and into a canyon...and something else equally strange that I can't recall just now...

It's, like, a different kind of life down there, eh?

You know, I could never tell Kiki's vocals from Elton's in "Don't Go Breaking My Heart"...one track sounds slightly more feminine than the other, but that certainly doesn't narrow it down...

I just read a man down under built up 40,000 of static electricity in his clothes and set fire to things as he passed! BBC news, today!

Yeh I heard about that man. Imagine not knowing what kind of effect he was having on those around him. Sounds like a regular sort of bloke to me. Totally oblivious. Bit of a capitalist too, he apparently paid good money for the jacket that the fire department confiscated.

At least yer guitars are pretty to look at.

And I hope the girlfriend is not there right now? If she was I am sure she would be not be flattered. You might even get a new dent in your head for that oversight mate.
