Who's been here since 2003?

[Biggles]

No seriously, who the fuck are you people?

Gentlemen of repute

some perhaps of the ill variety but gentlemen nonetheless.

Retirement would be nice J2 but needs must, my daughter appears to be one of those permanent student things.

Good God, how long has it been, sir?

That your daughter has been studently, I mean.

I remember when she started out...

We are your elders - your superiors in every way, and don't you forget it, you little shit.

Years and years

I was somewhat proud of her when I went to see her slightly odd 4th year degree show at art school (she specialised as an illustrator so the Jacques Cousteau submarine was a particular surprise) but was a little horrified to find that she had caught the eye of some highfalutin art school in London who offered her a postgraduate place.

That's worth congratulations to you both, I think.

If you end up in the poorhouse over it, perhaps she'll take you in, in your dotage.

Greet her for me if you would; I remember she used to post here and there, eh?

No, just that I'm a curmudgeonly and slightly aged person who has whiskers here.

Idol and I go back as far as he goes.

No worries Never entered my mind you have any Il will with Idol or anybody here... Plus you would have to get into the back of a very long line if you did
It was just a sparkling observation
Nice to see you back.

You can't be superior to me in every way as many things are mutually exclusive so they preclude being superior at both.Like for instance, being the most humane and being the most inhumane.

Edit.Sorry.Apparently it can be both the best of times and the worst of times so it's more a suggestion a than a rule.

Just going to look at London for a half day is ruinously expensive these days. I have thus far avoided selling any body parts and so far dodged all the cutbacks at work. However, I think the next round of austerity looms. Thankfully I am within spitting distance of retirement.

This was the young artist at work at one of those boutique outdoor music festivals "doing an art"....or it may have been a lure for stoned hippies as I think it was all lit up in the dark.

Apologies to those affected by the fact that she is encased in rubber. It can have a funny effect on some people.

Thank you.

Did you see me before?

Used to own this place, me and about ten of my peeps - Boab, J'Pol, Biggles, Rat, oh geez, better make that a few dozen of my peeps - I could go on for daze.

Idol - VV - was one of my trusted advisors.

Idol...look at me.


No, up here - at about your noon...focus, now...can you see me?

If you can, signal by squinting like the window-peeper you were when I gave you that job...
