All this and much much more!

I must say, I often try to write a quick review on these films, but the stories go through at such a rate, I am going to have to start taking notes!(my shothand is only legible to myself)
I think the most important point raised by this episode, is not about music, it`s about community and neighbours.
When I moved to our abode in which we are very happy in, the deciding factor was how nice the people were.
We had a nasty time,as you did, and a neighbour appeared with a freshly cooked shepherds pie. We can`t recall who it was, and we still have the dish that it arrived in.
Close friends and neighbours are everything, despite whatever has been thrown at us.
We love the "blogs" here, it is an important part of weekly viewing.
I wonder if Michael Grade in his new role has taken imformation like this on board, as he revamps ITV?

With your beard you look like Ali G

Ahead of your time again

Yes Martin; the neighbours are brilliant.
Funny story; when I was released there was a lot of TV coverage and a man running a hostel down the street was seen holding up a banner on his balcony.
A few days later, strolling down the street, I saw him scrubbing his steps - I smiled and said Good Morning. He clearly did not recognise me and had no idea who I was (he is South African and only arrived here a couple of years ago).
After two or three nods and smiles later I stopped and said "weren't you on TV a few weeks ago?".
"Yes", he said, "there was a news story and a TV company gave me this banner they had made and asked me to hold it up".
"Really", I said, "Do you still have it?".
"Oh no, they took it away with them", he replied, still not recognising me.
Made me laugh.

That`s a story in itself, I had no idea that sort of thing went on, I assume he was not even paid.
We did some clothes modelling, for a photo shoot and were paid in the clothes we modelled, which we didnt want, they could have at least let the chap stick the banner on E-bay.

Oh no Martin; that's the point; it would have been evidence!

At least they usually know how to cover their tracks (unless they are tapping phones, of course).

I have a lot of jounalist friends, and "create a story" is a reality, and is laughed over whilst quaffing wine.
I created an absolute whopper once about touring the USSR pre the collapse of the regime, and the Berlin wall.
Every paper I sent it to, took it, and I had not even got a contact at the time for the country.
My favourite headline was "Veggie singer to tour country where they queue for cabbage!"
"Blastnost!" was good as well.
I wish people would realise how much they read is actually, what`s the word? Oh yeah, crap.
There are real stories on here readers from real people.
