Vagueness and the Aftermath - A sporadic diary

[X] I was expecting to see [  ]************88 after the scroll down gap.
[X] I laughed at Red-Dog's brusque comment

Rick is a fellow Yorkshireman so it's almost a term of endearment.

I reckon that where you went wrong was neglecting to wear your "lucky" hat

True story from Blackpool.

Picture the scene. It's a beautiful morning. Cold, but bright and sunny. Compo, tikay and I are standing outside the Big Blue hotel having a chat while they smoke. Suddenly, Compo lets one rip.

Now we're not talking about no ordinary fart here, it doesn't fit into any of the normal categories  like "Banger" "Squeaker" ""Flock of sparrows" "Motorbike" etc... No. This was a one off.

If you did try to put this in in a category, it would probably have to be "Earthquake" because it measured about 9.5 on the Richter scale.

It was incredibly loud, but at the same time the frequency was so low as to be almost beyond the range of human hearing. We could plainly feel the vibrations as the ground shook beneath our feet.

Everything fell silent. Tony and I stopped talking, and, (no doubt alarmed by the sudden change in air pressure) even the seagulls stopped calling. The only sound was made by Compo as he stood there with a look of utter contentment on his face, breaking his major league wind.

"My God!" I said, when the noise finally abated. "I bet an elephant could hear that 10 miles away" and with an expression of pride similar to that of an Olympic gold medal winner on his face Compo replied, "I felt like an elephant when I was doing it"

Just at that moment, we glanced up and saw two refined looking women leaning our of a window not 3 feet above us. Judging by their slack jaws and glazed expressions they had gone into shock.

What did Compo do? Did he try to pretend it wasn't him? Did he face the music and apologise? No. I swear to God he ran away giggling like a schoolboy and hid around the corner. tikay pissed himself laughing.

These are the people we look up to, the  ones we see on TV. Our role models.

This post just goes to prove and confirm to me that saying "What happens on tour stays on tour"    Way too much information thanks Tom!

Is it just me that see's Tikay with David Walliams in the above photo?

That we are. If the Show does not get binned, it'll be on soon, & includes "beach footage".......

I cannot tell you how cold our feet were - it only took 2 hours to film that bit, stood in the water, barefooted. And to make it worse, we'd had an accident, & got our shoes, socks & trousers drenched by a freak wave earlier. So we tried to recreate it, on film, shoeless & sockless, but the wind dried, & the tide turned, & the waves refused to return. Timing, sigh.

My soaked shoes & socks were put to one side, & a greyhound came along & cocked his leg & pissed in them. I kid you not, Tom & Compo both witnessed it.

i feel a caption comp on its way!
