Well, Chris obviously isn’t dead of a smack overdose – as the last vaguely credible reports had it –he’s married to an American girl and has been living in Texas for the last three years. Following the chat we had on Friday night it seems like this year’s holiday is pretty much sorted out - a Stateside Dogs D’Amoose reunion which, I’ve been assured, will be a three week long piss up involving beach parties (he’s a stone’s throw from the gulf coast), shark fishing and automatic weaponry.
That leaves only one major player in the Down & Out… story to be accounted for - the girl I called Mötley Süe (although more than one report has it that she’s now married to the former glass collector from the Wapentake).
In other news I haven’t got much blog/website writing done recently as I’ve been spending all my spare time filling in job application forms and have also been trying to psyche myself up to ask out a certain female (I nearly managed it on Tuesday evening but chickened out at the last minute). The main problem is that I can't figure out whether she’s flirting around me or is just being friendly. For example, we were chatting about movies the other day and when I asked whether she’d been to see I Am Legend she told me:
“I’d love to see it but I haven’t got anyone to go with.”
She said the same thing when I asked her about
Cloverfield.
And
Sweeny Todd.
And
No Country For Old Men.
Am I failing to pick up on something here?
Getting back to the subject of the website, I see from the stats that our Ms Harvey has returned to these shores and dropped by the other day and also that someone from
McKinnells Solicitors came across the site via a search on my name and spent quite some time browsing around. Now that
has got me wondering – and more than a little bit paranoid - especially as I don’t recognise anyone on their
staff roster. That said, my legal department has assured me that, as long as I don’t use anyone’s real name, I should be fairly safe from libel writs.
