Yes, I think a fashion chat is what's needed (less football)-that and discussing Damian's dimples!!

Has the site been taken over by girlie chat! Lindsay must have been waiting for months for a soulmate to discuss Damian instead of having to put up with the rest of the site contributors.

Yeah if Jackie lives in Derry I can see the two girls spending all day Saturday shopping, leaving myself,Alastair and Henry to fend for ourselves in the pub.

Is the 4pm meeting in Bull Park still on? If so could one of you locals bring a ball.

Cliff I can assure that Jackie does not live in Derry. She lives a few mile away from me and we have previously met several times in the early 80's before she went off to University to study. So Lindsay can join you in the pub instead of shopping. If I didn't have training at work on the Monday I would have tried harder to get to the first concert if only for the 5 a side football. I hope you can arrange a game.

Could anybody enlighten a dumb male why Damain and not JJ ?

Bloody hell, I'd forgotten about "Reward" by Teardrop Explodes which is as CR implies is pure brass heaven on a stick. I have just finished reading Julian Copes book/s "Head On" and "Repossessed" - brilliantly entertaining read (and only 3 quid in Fopp) featuring bitchy stories about Pete Wylie, Mac the Mouth etc. Definitely recommended.

Speaking of Dire Straits - John Peel is at least partly to blame for their success - as far as I remember, wasn't he the first to play "Sultans of Ping" on wunnerful Radio 1?

This 'talk' bit is becoming addictive-I'm checking it out in my lunch break now.Everyone is obviously alert much earlier in the day than me! And if you liked the DON photos, you aint seen nothing yet!!

Too skinny for Damian-I always thought it was Sharkey in the shower

Wilke, it should be no problem picking you up at Bridgend, sure aren't we going that way any way!! Seriously, give me a buzz or call in and I'll give you my mobile number and that way there'll be no problems arranging a place and time for Sunday's gig of the year!!

Be warned Jackie - it's very easy to become addicted to this site - I only ever intended putting one message on in June last year and I'm now rapidly catching up Donald for the second place slot in the postings tally. Were you at any of the gigs last year and what other photos have you got? (any ones of Damian that are too risque to be put on here can be emailed to me and Rick personally!). I always thought it was JON in the shower. Personally I like the ones of Damian eating his soup (always wondered what was being said in that one!) and the clinch with Batman on the bed (Rick's favourite!).

Jackie,what lindsay is actually trying to say is this:She did intend to leave just one message but after she saw the "site contributors" page with all us male models on it she decided to hang around.Then on top of that she realised that we're also witty and charming and now she's hooked.Apparently she down loaded the pics of myself,Donald,CR,CMoS,George and Derek and now has them on her wall alongside Damian.No doubt the same will happen to you.Don't fight it.

Lindsay how did you guess the picture of Damian in a clinch with Batman was one of my favourites. You wily girl. If any of you get to meet the band at the next gig maybe you can ask them who is in the Hypnotised shower pic to put us all out of our misery. Perhaps CmoS could run a sweepstake before then. The tally so far is Feargal 1 vote, Damian 1 wishful vote, John 1 vote.
