Oh - I don't think I would have offended you - some of my mates have done in the past and its always amazed me what you can get away with.

You missed a chance to razz a rozzer, shame on you.

Getting a letter from the local council that a Brown Bear has been spotted in the neighbourhood, - how cool is that? Their advice if confronted is to "not run but make yourself big and shout at it" Wouldn't get that in Huddersfield.

If it was Huddersfield the bear would be wearing a Burberry cap and Elizabeth Duke Jewellery

Americans don't seem to like Robbie Williams, which is a big plus in my book. In fact more than one person I know was less than impressed with him at Live 8, but everyone back home seemed to love him. He does seem to have based his whole career on one song which he apparently wrote about 10% of, and slagging off his former band mates as often as possible.

No - they are all ok in my book - I mean, I don't think their music is great...but they don't in any way aggrovate me in the way Robby Williams does.

What? You dont think "I've got a brand new combine harvester" was the most iconic and deserving No1 of the late 20th Century?!

Hey, that song is a cult classic down in rural Dorset.

CLASSIC, I'm telling you!
