ROUNDHOUSE

ROUND AND ROUND WE GO, WHERE WE STOP KNOW ONE KNOWS! THANKS TO THE TWO. WE GOT OUR TIX FOR THE ROUNDHOUSE THIS MORNING AT 9.00 A.M. IT'S GOING TO BE VERY COZY INDEED! 1,800 PEOPLE ON A ROUND ABOUT! IT'S ALL GOING TO BE GOOD FUN AS IT'S A BBC TAPING OF THE NEW MINI OPERA! AND TO BE BROADCAST A WEEK LATER. LET'S ALL SMILE FOR THE CAMERA! SPOKE TO RON DOVEY, HARRY AND A FEW OTHERS AND THEY ALL GOT THEIR TICKETS TOO! NICOLA WAS HAPPY EVERYONE GOT THEIR TICKETS! AS THIS IS THE ONLY U.K. SHOW THIS PART OF THE YEAR AS THE U.S.A. TOUR TAKES THE SLOT! THANKS TO THE WHO WE HAVE BEEN HEARING FROM LOST WHO FRIENDS FROM YEARS AGO! IT'S AMAZING HOW LONG AGO WE MET OUR WHO FRIENDS AND MOST OF THEM WHERE FROM THE 3RD GENERATION OF WHO PEOPLE. WHAT HAPPENED TO MARC COHEN, GLENN, SCOTT, AND ALL OUR FELLOW TAPE TRADERS FROM THE EARLY/MID 70'S? HOPE THEY'RE ALL ALRIGHT!

A FRIEND IS A FRIEND (NOT!)

IT'S AMAZING THAT YOU BEFRIEND PEOPLE, BE IT A RELATIVE OR JUST A STRANGER. YOU LISTEN TO ALL THEIR TALES OF PLEASURES AND WOES. YOU HAVE THEM FOR DINNER PARTIES AND YOU DO LUNCH WITH THEM. YOU HELP THEM TRY TO GET ALL THE THINGS THEY NEED TO MAKE THEM HAPPY, THEN WALLA THEY STOP BEING YOUR MATE? IS THIS BEING USED OR IS THIS PART OF THE LEARNING CURVE WE ALL HAVE TO ENDURE? DO YOU MAKE BELIEVE IT DOESN'T HURT OR DO YOU TRY TO OCCUPY YOURSELF WITH THOUGHTS THAT YOU DID SOMETHING WRONG. OR DO YOU JUSTIFY THAT THAT PERSON(S) HAVE JUST GONE OFF THE RAILS? JUST GET ON WITH IT AS MY HUSBAND'S CATCH WHO SAYING GOES! IT ALSO GOES FOR FAMOUS PEOPLE IN THEIR HOUR OF NEED YOU LISTEN TO THEM AND WHEN THEIR ON TOP (WHAT EVER THAT MEANS THESE DAYS) THEY DON'T WANT TO KNOW! AND THEY TREAT ALL THE PEOPLE AROUND THEM LIKE SHIT! AND THEY WANT TO QUIT THE TOUR BUT WOULDN'T DUE TO LOYALTY AND MONEY! THEY PROMISE TO RETIRE AFTER THE SONG IS OVER! I HOPE EVERYONE GETS WHAT THEY WANT AND NEED! I AM JUST SICK OF TIRED OF BEING AN UN-PAID PSYCHOTHERAPIST TO ALL AND THE BUCK IS STOPPING NOW!

WET WET WET AND MORE WET

WE FINALLY GOT THE MUCH NEEDED RAIN HERE IN ESSEX. OUR GRASS ALMOST LOOKS GREEN AGAIN. IT FEELS LIKE A REAL AUTUMNAL DAY. IT'S COLD AND WET WITH A BIT OF SUNSHINE TO WET(HAHA) OUR WANTS! IT'S FUNNY WE DON'T FEEL BAD ABOUT MISSING THE WHO SHOWS THIS AUTUMN IN NEW YORK. WE WILL JUST SIT TIGHT AND LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST UNTIL THEY RETURN TO THE UK AND OR EUROPE. I'M LEAVING FOR THE U.S.A. IN A FEW DAYS WITH THE KIDS. AT FIRST I WAS FRIGHTENED TO FLY, BUT THOSE RELIGIOUS BASTARDS ARE NOT GONNA STOP ME FROM ENJOYING MY LIFE. THEY ARE GOING TO GIVE ME 8 HOURS OF GRIEF FROM MY KIDS AS I CAN'T BRING ANYTHING ON BOARD THE AEROPLANE. WISH ME LUCK ENTERTAINING MY 4 YEAR OLD HYPER ACTIVE LAD! NOT EVEN A CRAYON, NOT A SWEETIE, NOTHING AT ALL...........EKE.............................................
