| Now then. Welcome to Tuesday. Time
for another 'un i do believe. Cold outside, hope you're all wrapped
up like a sausage in a kilt etc. Hope you're all well. Here's yer
block. Stick a scarf on it.
First, as always, the new 'uns. Just the one this week, but she
WAS last weeks SOS i do believe so i'm a happy geezer. Say 'ello
to Nemone Wilman won't ya - May her inbox ne'er be the same.
Before i start, just a little foreword. I HOPE these ain't getting
a bit boring or a bit retro - It's easy to get carried away but
it is also easy to get bored once the original novelty of a reunion
idea has worn off. I hope this ain't the case - 16 weeks on i'm
still sending them out, hopefully to a delighted bunch of readers!
If they ARE getting tacky or sh*te PLEASE drop a hint - Weasel does
NOT offend easily!!!! I just suspected that, once i announced it
will be January before the reunion occurs, people got cold feet.
Me inbox shrank in size soon after that! Hope i'm wrong anyway -
I LOVE sending these out, they're a good laugh to research and prepare,
and i hope you all like 'em too. Let me know!
(only another 12 or 13 to go before the reunion anyway!!!!)
Right, the Youth Choir section in friendsreunited is up 'n' running
again, so check it out or add yerself - "Teams/Clubs",
then "Musical Group", then "North", and finally
search on Huddersfield Choral Youth choir. PWEEZ add your stuff
- Inflate its gut. ANY pix you got, send my way on e mail only as
i still have no scanner, and i'll post them on the already massive
photo board. Nice 1!
Also, www.hcsyc.co.uk is there as always and continues to grow,
please check it out as Jon and Simon have put a lot of hard work
into it. Enter yer details in the Guestbook. Make it massive.
Footie. Blimey. Leeds won, i was a happy geezer. So did everyone
else down there unfortunately. Town on a wicked roll, can't believe
it. Bradford doing p*nts, which is excellent, as was me beloved
Celtic winning at Rangers on Saturday. Get yer flags out and cheer
England on this Saturday. I want them Turks to feel as painful as
a peeled squirrel in a bag of saxa come the 90th minute!!!
Had a flick through friendsreunited for more peeps, found a couple
more. ALSO found Walter Poontang, None None, Dalian Wobsprocket,
Enda Bender, Janet Focker, Elvis Scaramuzza, and Gillian Shatt whilst
looking. Whether they're spoof names or not, i dont care - They
made me eyes water!
Someone, who shall remain nameless, sent me a mail recently and
put an "x" at the end. The "someone", incidentally,
was male. Whoops!
I mailed Katie Baron, amongst others, to mention the forthcoming
night out in Leeds for us (October 18th if you're interested). Katie
is in Australia. Whoops!
Simeon LeGras wants to come to the Leeds V Man U cup match with
me. Nice 1! Only 1 problem. Simeon is a Man United fan. Sim, your
ticket, bulletproof vest, crash helmet and trainers what make you
run extra fast, are in the post, my son.
Thanx this week to - Ross Murray for locating Nemone, and Nigel
Keenan for sending me some QUALITY pics on fwd. I'd better not put
the pics on the Youth Choir section though - They'll probably shut
us down...
Don't forget that Eddy Townsend and Neil Broadbent are currently
appearing in "Carousel" at the Lawrence Batley theatre
in Huddersfield. Quality stuff.
How do you make a hormone? Dont pay her.
In the small print on the box of Co - Op's 100 percent beefburgers,
it says "99 percent beef". What the f**k is the other
1 percent? AIR?
KIDDIE QUOTE. Emily, aged 4, asked me the other day "Daddy,
whats a virgin?" Danielle, in a "dont you know THAT"
tone, replied "It's someone who doesnt eat meat". Oh joy.
Moments like that make 'em all the more worth while.
Film / Tv - Dont miss "Collateral Damage" this Saturday
on Moviemax if you got Sky. Arnies finest. I am WELL into "Enjie
Benjie" on Nick Junior at the moment. VERY educational...
Ok, enuff of that, more of this.
THIS WEEKS SOS
MALE = Matthew Burnell. Matthew was larger than life and larger
than most of us, and he was a top geezer indeed. He looked like
the "stay puft" monster in Ghostbusters. Know where he
is? Let me know!
FEMALE = Alexandra Moran. I went through six years of SCHOOL with
Alex but dunno where she is, nor do 50 or so school contacts i have.
Quiet, ever so nice and prim and proper, she would have made the
perfect Mrs Weasel were it not for the fact that i was a noisy loudmouthed
w****r. Know where she is, or where her gaff is? Let me know!
USELESS FACTS OF OUR TIME. PART 16.
Richard Sykes can sing the Outer Mongolian National Anthem in Dutch,
but only after eating a Gherkin and noodle sandwich. On a Saturday.
In May.
MEMORY OF THE WEEK
At 16 years old, me and Martin Cooper thought we were "hard"
by drinking Cider on the Isle of Wight. 3 pints later, we looked
anything BUT. Decorated pavements and angry residents a - plenty.
Chris Bamford - I PITIED you as our room - mate, my son.
(Jon LeGras, you can stop smirking, it was YOU who went to the bar
for us!!!)
PERSON OF THE WEEK
This weeks gong goes to Eddy Townsend for starting off a battle
of "who's on top" in the Guestbook in the website - a
battle that Weasel is currently winning, incidentally. He's also
a top man anyway! Raise your frothy ales and light your f*rts in
honour of this top notch geezer!
10 DODGY CHOIR RELATIONSHIPS. PART 16.
"Ewan Hill. And Ewan Hill"
Ewan regularly held conversations with himself at choir and often
talked at us lot in his usual musically bullsh*tting egotistical
way. Ewan and Ewan visited regular local gigs together. At a U2
gig, Ewan had an argument with, erm... Ewan about which member of
U2 had the best hairstyle. Sad. Ewan often became Ewan MCLEOD Hill
if the place he was at was posh enough, but he still looked like
a prime t*sser. It all ended when Ewans right hand spotted his left
hand going for "a wander".
ANAGRAM OF THE WEEK
"Mister Brandon Robinson" / REM brood in Branson's nits.
An alternative amusing one is "Mother in law" / Woman
Hitler
SONGS WE SANG. AND WHO THEY WERE REALLY WRITTEN FOR. PART 6.
Lift thine eyes.
This one was actually penned for Arnold Schwarzenegger, and his
famous wandering hands. The idea was for the lady to lift her eyes
skywards so she never noticed his groping fingers. THE classic line
- "Lift thine eyes, so you can't see. My fingers feeling your
bot-tee"
POETRY CORNER.
Ross. You're on, my son (i got a mail calling me a b*stard x SEVEN
from Tim after last weeks!)
There once was a geezer called Ross,
Who's motto was "Can't give a toss".
He was Scottish - Thats right!
And incredibly tight,
And his wallet was covered in moss!!
Wahey. I thank you. (that has just killed off ANY remote chance
of getting a pint out of him at the reunion that i might have had)
QUESTION OF THE WEEK
No - one got last weeks answer, which is just as well 'cos i can't
f*****g remember what it was. Never mind. Here's yer teaser for
this week. Which song has been sung the MOST times in the history
of the Youth Choir? It does NOT include the National Anthem, Littlewood!!!
1st in gets a pound of frozen marmite, chips wi'bits and a teapot.
There is a bonus prize of an egg for the first to tell me which
concert we first sang it in. Good luck!
TOP 10 WORST SONGS FROM THE YOUTH CHOIR REPERTOIRE. Number 5.
"Schneewaltzer"
This one got me feeling about as Christmassy as an ice cold bud
on Bondai Beach. The literal translation was "Sh*te, sh*te,
sh*te, sh*te. Waltzing in the sh*te". The first time we sang
it at a Christmas concert, one particularly grumpy pensioner who
probably sneaked in AND got a free bus ride to the Town Hall stood
up half way through and exclaimed "Christmas is meant to be
f*cking HAPPY. I'd rather look at my 90 year old wife in the nip
than listen to this". Anyone remember it? A diabolical excuse
for a song.
DISH OF THE WEEK. (this should be more like it)
As a starter, the chef is serving up the excellent "Drowned
world" by Madonna, one of her finest, it should sure fill yer
girth in readiness for tonights main course, which is "Waiting
in Vain" by Bob Marley. Nuff said. Soothe yerself with a dessert
of "i knew i loved you" by Savage Garden (Bet someone
takes the p*ss for me including that one!). Tonights wine is the
infectious "the bartender and the thief" by Stereophonics,
and, if you haven't burst already, coffee is being served in the
form of "6 underground" by Sneaker Pimps. Tonights Wildman
offering is the exceptional "reverence" (all 12 minutes
of it) by Faithless, one of the worlds finest bands. Please enjoy
your meals. I did! (b*lch b*rp etc)
Joke of the week (apart from Sir Alex Ferguson). "Apparently,
it is all quiet and peaceful in the nursing home where Frank Bruno
is recovering. Until someone rings the dinner bell"
Yo ho ho!
HANDY HINTS
Have all your dumps at work. Not only will you save on t*ilet roll,
you'll also be getting paid for it.
PETER KAYE ONE-LINERS
"A dyslexic man walks into a bra"
Ok, thats nearlly yer lot. Please drop me a swiftie if you can re.
the opening paragraph - To use a musical phrase, i just hope i aint
playing to an empty auditorium. I love 'em - Hope you do too! Send
me also ANYTHING about ANYONE you remember, even an old address
or phone number could be useful. Pics on e mail, enter yerselves
in the Youth choir section and the Guestbook at www.hcsyc.co.uk
if and when you can. Should keep you busy until next Tuesday! I
wanna keep blitzing this before Christmas kicks in, it would be
nice to have it all in place by mid December so we all have something
to look forward to AFTER xmas. Hope you agree. You know where i
am! Drop me a line!
Finally, Claire Ackroyd now has 79 witnesses that i WILL do her
garden this Saturday. I have let Claire down on a number of occasions
recently and i have VOWED to her that i WILL be there this week.
So you can all lynch me if i dont make it now (but i will, Claire
- fear not!)
Look after yerselves!
Adios
Dave
