  • Fixed that for you G.

    I only deal in FACTS!

  • :d

  • ...Jodie Harsh

    Fixed.

  • Off this forum I'd love to meet tynan and smallfurry. These two are damned elusive, and tynan especially has no excuse because he's in London. I suspect he likes to keep the forum at more than arms length.

    Blushes

    Seriously though. I had hoped to hook up with forumee's (rides, drinks, drinking on bikes etc.), the next time work puts me in London. This has'nt happened though. The only other time I'm in London, I have a tired family in tow, and am on my way to the homeland (Plymouth).

  • I'd like to meet William Eggleston (finally)... Had two near misses so far...

    Really? I'd be scared to meet him. He strikes me as being totally fucking nuts.

    Love his work though.

  • Fixed that for you G.

    lol
    Its always the same jokers on here taking the piss out of eachother on a Friday. I guess I am not the only one who sits around doing fuck all at work

  • Off this forum I'd love to meet tynan and smallfurry. These two are damned elusive, and tynan especially has no excuse because he's in London. I suspect he likes to keep the forum at more than arms length.

    tynan is, hands down, the funniest guy I have ever met. i feel privileged to have been in his presence.

  • Helon Skelton - then I could introduce her to *m.f

  • tynan is, hands down, the funniest guy I have ever met. i feel privileged to have been in his presence.

    This.

  • Tynan for Jesus 2010?

  • Really? I'd be scared to meet him. He strikes me as being totally fucking nuts.

    Love his work though.

    That was my reaction... Was out having dinner with a friend in Memphis when he told me we were all going to Bill's for drinks afterwards... I practically shat my pants... Fortunately, Bill was out of town with his Mexican girlfriend... Regret it now, got a lot of friends who've met him and they say he's a lovely man... And great fun to get trashed with... ;]

  • Rachel Elnaugh - ginger and minted

  • tynan is, hands down, the funniest guy I have ever met. i feel privileged to have been in his presence.

    I've met you both, he is funnier online, you in real life.

  • I've now met Balki.

    My life is complete.

  • Im told its a let down.

    :(

  • You look nothing like your avatar, you know.

  • I remember the pub game we used to play at uni, if you could have 3 people come to dinner who would they be? Would have to rethink my answer for now but my choices then were:

    1. Jackie Chan
    2. Paul Weller
    3. The Sugababes (we all agreed that they only counted as one person) *

    • 2001 lineup.
  • If I were going to play that game it would have to be Richard Dawkins, Archbishop Tutu and the Dalai Lama.

  • I've always wanted to meet John le Carre and Hugh Grant, introduce them to each other, and for them to produce a remake of The Russia House, with Hugh playing Barley. I would helpfully explain to Hugh that he is a shit actor but this is the role he was made for, and to John that The Russia House is a far more important and entertaining book than his current output. We would all drink too much beer and end up going to the strips, do drugs, and next day rather than wondering wtf we'd still enthusiastically draft a production agreement.

    That's as close to "I'm not gay but..." as I've got so far.

    And Raymond Chandler/Clive Owen - The Big Sleep, Kingsley Amis/Alan Davies - Lucky Jim etc. Now that I think about it, I have the hots for my favourite author/actor/novel combos... time for therapy. I'd fuck Penelope Cruz though.

  • tynan is real? i thought he was some sort of bot?

  • Im told its pants down.

    :(

    Fixed.

  • Also the spineless cunts who started rumours that those of us who were looking after fiddys affairs were divvying up his bikes.

    They never came forwards but had others report the rumours to us.

    You truly are cunts of the highest order.

    How to take a sane thread and make it nasty, by dancing james.

    [can of worms]
    Leave it!

    I was being serious

    I've heard loads of rumours too and wanted to get it from the horses mouth. PM's are fine

    Absolutely nothing has happened with Paul's bikes. they were left to a particular individual who can make himself known if he wishes.

    Once the estate is cleared up the bikes are his to do with as he pleases. No one else has a say in the matter (including James and I). Anyone who has a problem with it can take it up with me afterwards as I will not allow the aforementioned person to have to deal deal with the bitching on his own.

    What some people seem to forget is that Paul was our friend, collectively. That doesn't mean that any single person has any claim to his bikes now that Paul has died.

    Please just let this lie. And that goes for you too James.

  • If I were going to play that game it would have to be Richard Dawkins, Archbishop Tutu and the Dalai Lama.

    I imagine that would be something like this:

    Dalai Lama as the referee?

    The reason that I suggest those three is because it represents three very different views on humanity and spirituality. There are any number of atheists that I could invite but Dawkins could prove interesting because publically he has often relied on the agression of organised religion in his debating. Countering that with two very peaceful theists could well push his background arguments into open ground. I would love to see what common ground those three could attain.
