Anyone read Frozen Cattle by Thora Hird?

It's fucking despicable behaviour like. I wonder why no one did an expose on Savile, given the rumours would've been rife around Fleet Street. Conspiracy theorists probably think its because he could've brought down the entire establishment. More likely it was easier to get copy out of Charlotte Church and Gavin Henson having an argument on holiday.

You should do a roman a clef about the admin team.

Honestly, it put me off reading it and I think it will do others too. If you've put that much effort into something it / you deserve it to get a proper reading rather than it being dismissed before it's had a chance. Anyway, pretty sure Parky was volunteering.

There's a word missing in the opening paragraph. Not trying to be a cunt (that comes naturally) but that sort of thing looks sloppy and puts people off the content before they've even given it a chance. Getting someone with a fresh pair of eyes to proof-read it would be a good idea imo. Best of luck with it, takes some cajones to put your own work out there.

Don't you start.

I think people just discount reviews for self-published stuff on Amazon anyway as they're either by mates, vindictive or both.

The reviews - that's quite a range.

:lol:

It's the way you tell 'em.

Always worth posting this again: http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/lostinshowbiz/2013/jul/18/katie-hopkins-queen-of-conflict

The last line especially

Or wind-ups, depending on which one it is.

And greater awareness of new technologies

And hoverboards

You caught any of the Nile Rogers / Disco stuff that's been on BBC 4 late / in the middle of the night recently? Quality, man.

Too close to the bone for Ryder I suspect.

I would've thought the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan should be examples of why we don't need such a big army etc. given we usually make things worse when we wade into these places in any case.

Did you shag the pilot?

You also have someone like Vic Marks who talks so much common sense and you get the feeling Moores would rather (to pick a crazy example) lose to Bangladesh and crash out of the World Cup than use an idea someone else had thought of first.

That's class.
