RIP Hifi Wigwam

I imagine everything remotely profound being read by Bobcat Goldthwait.

Stu, you know JR Hartley is a fictional character right?

…think of him as, say, the opposite of Parakeets for example :slightly_smiling_face:

Parakeets are rubbish at advertising - Last time I listened to one I ended up buying six lengths of crimped perspex I didn’t need.

Reading through this takes me back. My bake off cherry, Kenny’s in Motherwell. Then myself and Snapper drove to Biscuits in Cambridge where Mibby was rather stoic/pished about the wrong voltage. The guilty were panicking and Mibby was nonplussed. His reaction endeared myself.

When the Wam became rather sanitized I decided I no longer had any requirements for sanitary products and disappeared from everywhere for a number of years. I kinda came back and posted a few times and now on the new Mav forum. I think I may like it here amongst the industrial slurry.

I do recognise a lot of old cunts.

X.

I think I remember you at Biscuits. Didn’t you drive down from Scotland, and stay overnight in a tent?
