Perhaps it's not quite on the same level, but maybe there is some kind of parallel to be drawn between regular requests for viewings of Dave's tattoo and the amount of vaginas I have seen photographed in the currently popular 'upskirt' manner in recent years. Now, I'm not saying I don't like vaginas, but I'm just not a fan of the paparizzi lounging on a kerb outside Boujis just waiting for that halcyon moment when the latest X-Factor contestant jumps into a cab... Just because someone is in the private eye, whether they be a respected and much-liked chap like Mr Gorman, or a debauched celebrity miscreant like Britney Spears doesn't mean we have a right to see and hear about everything they do... especially when it has been so well described in both book and televisual form.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, enough of that - I had a great time on Sunday evening, partially thanks to Dave, and also due to having finally seen Sigur Ros the previous night, my musical high still continuing the next day. So, congrats on the reading, sir!J.Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17634374731637996413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4588205362847565197.post-38103311976024445372008-07-25T12:43:00.000+01:002008-07-25T12:43:00.000+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.J.Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17634374731637996413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4588205362847565197.post-39108685482725429082008-07-24T14:00:00.000+01:002008-07-24T14:00:00.000+01:00I think BBQ Pringles are vegan... but the salt and...I think BBQ Pringles are vegan... but the salt and vinegar ones are just vegetarian.<BR/><BR/>I thought Dave was reading from American Unchained.
