The first comment of 2004 - guess who fell asleep on the sofa before 11 last night?!!! Must have been the country air here in the Isle of Wight. Back to NL next week for a great 2004 with The Riplets and The Undertones keeping us happy. Happy 2004 to all - see you soon.

Happy Humdinging New Year everyone. Snow started here 11.15 and by midnight there was a snowman in my garden.

Happy New Year to all. If its as good Undertone-wise as 2003 we are in for a treat. Another great album and festive five single with plenty more great gigs. Very pleasing to see them all leaving messages inc future plans on here or the .com site. See you all soon.

See some of the new year celebrations went like a damp squid. Don't suppose the weather interferes with the drinking. Any resolutions broken yet? Already had my first race of the year. My head hurts that much you'd think I'd been on the drink. Wonder if the CSA want to fund my trips to Germany, Holland and Italy?

2 resolutions gone already. No drinking and no swearing..... Resolving to walk to work will have gone by tomorrow as well. Might make a new one not to drink advocaat.

Just wanted to break the 1,000 barrier to say that was a really nice, genuine message from Mickey(as well as the ones from John, Paul and Billy). Not too many band members that post on band websites so fair play to him, just wanted to say that!!

Let's not put any pressure on Dee(ladies choice)O'Neill then :) Nice one Mickey all the best to you. Gigwise I think I'll struggle this year, might make Glasgow, dunno I'll see how the buses are that night. Don't want to stir anything but thanks for the DVD signed by all the band and of course yourself Vin, that was a lovely Xmas gift :)

It's extra special that Feargal and John Peel signed it too! I forgot to say 'Where's Clifford?' I get worried when he doesn't post for a while, the greasy spoon business is a cuthroat business. Just as well he has a brassneck. HNY cheeky chops.
