Welcome, Common Man!  I agree that something spectacular wouldn’t go amiss.  However I would suggest something along the lines of a ton or two of dynamit under the stage.  That would liven things up?

Maxi – Too knackered.  All will be clear tomorrow.

Mick – I was sitting in my chair minding my own business, but this thing was blaring at me half the night.  Did I have a choice?  No.  Not unless I went and sat in the garden but it was too fucking chilly for that.  As for your second suggestion – that I mow the lawns?  Have you ever tried mowing the lawns at ten at night?  I thought not.

Kate – Star gazing is something I do the odd time.  And the only reason I don’t do it more often [for example, like alst night] is because thaere are big black fuck-off raincouds in the way.  Herself had exacly the same opinion as myself.  At least, she had better have, or she’s in trouble again.

Incidentally, there was a typo in the article what I wrote – I said that a “rose” had tried to ‘strange’ Ray D’Arcy, which was an interesting use of the language??  I fixed it anyway, despite no one noticing.  Humph!
