hullo, what`s all this nonsense. Fell asleep about 30 years ago and seem to have woken up in cyberspace. Lots of familiar voices telling strange stories. Audie? is that you? Captain? Kirk? beam me up doctor, I don`t feel good

hello filf a reunion gig sounds like fun to me, not sure I remember the songs. I dimly recall rehearsing in Kirks garage on Canvey, "I`m going mad" springs to mind as does "Bring down the price of beer" Where in Aus are you? I`ve got family in Brisbane, that`s a nice place to do a gig, maybe you could organise it?

we could do a massive reunion tour by going down the feelgood route and simply sending out an entirely different band, this would solve any personnel problems that may otherwise arise.

Yeah that sounds great, a world re-union tour! We just gotta find Mark and then some special guests to fill in for Alf. Mind you, great idea Mick, just send out a bunch of ringers and we can be gettin pissed on the beach! Im in Canberra, but not for much longer, just about to move up to the mid-north coast. About 7hrs from Brisvagas!

I told that girl she`d never get anywhere in the entertainment industry unless she bought herself a pretty frock and stopped using mucky language. Do you remember the night she got us thrown out of that pub in Dorset for using the F word? Trust us to walk into the very pub Bill Grundy bought after getting the push from Thames TV

by george i do! It was her inability to keep a civil tongue in her head that scuppered that band in the final analysis.

Don`t be too hard on the poor girl. I`m sure she`s spent many a long cold night in some shop doorway or other, wrapped up in old newspaper for warmth, thinking wistfully of the good times and regretting that she never had the foresight to change sex and learn to play the harmonica. I know I have.

Yes, of course one should show some christian charity, let not those in green houses be the first to lob 2 stones in a bush or whatever it is, but do you know I think that poor lass may have been preordained, if thats the word I want, to that sort of existence. Do you remember that very big bottle of "orange juice" she used to take to gigs and guard like it was bonnie langfords virginity ? well one night up the fulham greyhound i filched a couple of gobfuls of it while her back was turned.......by jingo! my eyes shot from thier parent sockets and waved about on thier stems like a snails, and my hair rocketed up like a startled grasshopper! The stuff would have put keith richards in intensive care for a month.

Funny, coz i dont remember seeing her with that bottle of "orange juice" on Top of the pops. As for Bill Grundy...well he really was a f***in rotter wasnt he? I must say im impressed with your powers of recall....you obviously didn't drink enough of Alf's orange juice!

Mick ? Andy? is that you.... thought you were dead!
You were forgetting the great kebab incident after a gig where all the gig money disapeared into the kebab shop... the furore!! the sackings!!... the scandal!! the PR disaster!!... The Greyhound was the one were she fell into your kit halfway through...and it was the Orange Juice!! after all these years Ive been thinking the girl was fatigued...
