santas not what he's cracked up to be.

sometimes presents much more thrilling appear at new year not christmas.

mmmm....thrilllllsss... heh heh heh  cackle... gibber. lucky lucky Bous.

a car ?!?

i forgot to mention,
santa also broke my car, its probably a write off.
 & i got a tax bill.
and today the dog woke up paralysed, but one day trip to dingwall & best part of over a weeks wages, can now walk.

yeah thanks 2005, wreck more havoc whilst you still can, year from hell.

ahh mini-bous ipod shuffle doesnt rock, its very annoying, i shall have to post a techy help thread.


well i'd asked my un-imginative parents for some comic art clip frames, Hurrah ! ! so more art is shiney & safe on the walls, i was hammering nails in at 1am.

money for new day-shoes.

and a set of gouache paints , happy happy joy !!

unexpected pressies;

mini-bou who earns ?3 per hour, aged 12, bought me a big oil painting set ! ! a benedict allen book, smellies, far out.
long way round dvd off taki-bou

also ;

a travel book.
fancy wool & knitting needles
candles
chocs.

more importantly the kids are totally gadgeted , CD'd & cosy thingsed up !

with regard to hitchhikers, he did make a comment with the dressing gown "very arthur dent"

i think these casual references to both contemporary & vintage, geek & mainstream concepts/culture/characters/stuff is part of the appeal of this last series.

mind you i felt the satsuma throw was a nod to Mr davidsons who cricketing abilities also.

It was great !!

i was jumping up & down in my seat yelling " a cup of tea !! !  a cup of tea, fer fucksake give the tardis some tea "
of course the kids thought i was being bloody ridiculous, ha !  

annoying, last scene how did jackie happen to wander along to the street where they all teleported down ?

swordfighting was a bit cack, and how come that button where he threw the satsuma just happened to drop the bit of the ship where ugly bloke was ?

but still i loved it , cos i was very upset at loosing eccleston, but ...oh alright, i suppose tennant cuts it.  hurrah !

and then later on in eastenders they had the alien dust falling down too !  i love continuity.

scrotnig at ye FK  !

have a great one in not japan, but OZ.

yours, exhausted & wheeling & dealing Still !  grud, call me del-bou.

damn, my claims to ultimate martyrdom have been twarted by having a whole 4 days off...

and then i remembered !  ha !  i'm still on fire call the whole time generally 155+ hours a week. hurrah , i win !

however we didnt get our traditional christmas day fire this year, which is good cos the soot plays havok with my sequins & shiny sparkly clothes.

i'm knackered.
worked til 4.30,
yeeha got tomorrow 'off'
and the next 2.. funting miracle

half way thru shift tho i discovered that my gear ox is playing up.. the mechanics have all fecked off for chrimbo, the boumobile is probably a write off...

remember in village of the damned, public transport is as alien a concept as foreign food and words of more that two syllables.

so instead of worrying about the rent, & how to afford the operation my dog needs, ...  anyone wanna buy a suzuki 500  ?

meanwhile in order to spread xmas cheer & a sack of pressies to my son, exiled the other side of the country tomorrow, i managed to get a lift one way, but might well have to hitch back... sorry girls, santa had to walk & his knee went somewhere north of achnasheen.

appart from that i'm just happy happy happy to not be working for 3 days.

wow gorgeous norway, i only been there in the autumn, was in sweden last feb, mega blizzard, scary take off in plane being blasted with jets of anti-freeze. stunning tho. scandinavia has a civilized attitude to snow.

none up here yet, some last week. it better hold off til after tomorrow if'n i got to hitch 75 miles !

Hurrah !!  Three cheers for Rufus's Dredd !

Christmas cheer is all upon us, many merry huggish greetings upon this fine solistice to all the cool guys n gals in comic-land. x x

have you looked on ebay for a rough idea of prices that things go for, its only a rough idea of course. i think you might be pleasantly surprised.

or you could sell it to me for 99p, which would be nice.

right... so can anyone confirm or not confirm, that matt is in charge of both the meg AND helping Tharg ?

in which case would making double the comments about what pretty blue eyes he's got get me a job ? or should i just stick with trying to improve my drawing first .... only doubley ?

eh !   what , who where?

sorry ive not been paying attention, so alan barnes is finishing ? this i had heard, tis a shame the megs been great..

are you telling me matt is going to be editor?

who will help Tharg at 2000ad then?  !

yeep ! we old people hate change. until it happens, then its fine.

the 2006 is just a fat version of the weekly , so his newsagent should already have saved it, you could try sneakily contacting his newsie to find out maybe?

for extra thrill treats have you looked at the shop on this web site? or theres some great 2000ad graphic novels on the go at the mo, or the winter special that came out last month or so ?  the official subscriptions lady is always very helpful too, the phone number is ( i think ) front page of the weekly.

is the coolest jungle the one at the bottom of the himalyias ?

coolest job ? = Thargs, and yet horribly stressful for anyone lacking his beteguisian coolness.

second coolest job ? = jonothan rosses, getting paid shit loads for revelling in stuff you like, and comics. bastard.
i'd prefer to be the prop designer for LOTR tho.
