Someone hold me.

Actually scrap that - living next door to Gump would be worse. Cheers for reminding me you exist, Mary.

Essex is probably the worst place in the world to live. The area itself isn't so bad, but the people don't seem to have evolved out of the Primordial soup yet, let alone from monkeys! There are some true w*nk*rs round these parts, pure ignorant, selfish, thoughtless t*sspots.

Buckhurst Hill. Couple of miles from here, remember that sickening story.

Ok. I still don't get the point but anyway.

hi

My girlfriend's sister asked someone she knows from living in Nottingham if he'd heard about the Xylophone Man passing on: "Xylophone Man? You must mean Glockenspiel Man." I almost punched him down the phone. Everyone knows it's Xylophone Man. His grave will say "Here lies Xylophone Man. He tinkles forever in our hearts." Glockenspiel Man. Idiot.

*Still can't stop crying*

This sucks. I never saw Xylophone Man live, but I know of his legacy. Nice to see he got so many tributes on a site as big as the BBC. Long may his insane xylophone lunacy live on.
