| John, I told you I have been concentrating on the 7 deadly sins, and today's subject was "lust". Envy was the first one - see children's website. It's your turn now. |

| Agree with Punchy - the todger rhymes were inspiredly wicked. Good work and so, so erotic! |

This is mainly written in anapaests! A very enjoyable piece that had me laughing - almost to the point of my own cardiac! Cheers |

Oh, my dear friends, such high praise indeed! To which I feel I must respond. And yet… there remain far too many of you to mention by name. John, to whom I shall ever be indebted for burning down the Wigan palladium during my highly unsuccessful run as Hamlet in William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet (the bastard producer having given me the wrong script!). Josie, who - armed only with a copy of the King James Bible and a bottle of fake tan - single-handedly turned me from a flabby middle-aged heathen into a beautifully honed bronzed Adonis. One can but wonder what might have happened had she seen fit to use both hands!) Punchy, who, whilst endeavouring to assist me in keeping it up, was always happy to pull my cracker. The fell pony, who on numerous occasions expressed her admiration for the fact that I had managed to keep my rhythm throughout (and never once felt the urge to confess our relationship to her fellow fillies at my daughter’s pony club). Veronica, who, akin to the charming punchy, felt my todger to be inspiringly wicked and so, so erotic (if only she‘d known that it wasn‘t really mine. I had only borrowed it for the weekend). Phil, a man of few words who, even so, was still able to express his admiration of my final performance. Brett, a fellow bard who advised me that I wrote like an anapaed, danced like a centipede, talked like an animal do, and who, sadly, whilst watching my performance of Macbeth in Some Mothers Do Much Ado About Having Them, laughed himself into an early grave. And, finally, patter jack. A fellow thespian who admired my epigraph and wrote my epitaph (even though I was still much alive!). As with all of the fellow’s works it was a beautifully scripted piece of literature. Just two simple words: HERE LIES. As if I would! One likes to believe that he would have written more about me if only he’d known who I was. Yet such was the price of fame; far too expensive for one such as I. Old soldiers may never die, but old codgers? Adieu, my friends, adieu. * At least this way no one can accuse me of pushing my review numbers up by answering you all personally. |

Oh, and Josie, before you form any more images of me, I am not really an old codger, I am simply a young(ish) man playing a role in the theatre of life. |

Coosh, my sincere thanks go out to you for offering such kind words. As you know, I am not one for long drawn-out replies, preferring to err on the side of succinct whenever possible. Yet I recall that my good friend Crissy Lee (who you will no doubt remeber from his role in the classic film Some Like It Not, in which he starred alongside Marilyn Manson; her very first portrayal of the lesbian monocyclist Penelope Layby, a role for which she would later win an Oscar. Crissy, of course, played the part of Count Drabula, for which he won the Oscar for Best Male Lead in a second-hand suit. I, myself, played the much underated part of 3rd shoeshine boy; a cameo of my role of 1st shoeshine boy in the legendary film The Grandmother, alongside Dusty Hoffmeister; who played the Oscar-winning part of Mafia boss Don Quixote). So, as I was saying, I recall that my good Oscar-winning friend Crissy Lee comes walking up to me, smoking a huge Cuban cigar (that must have set him back plenty!) and wearing a massive grin upon his fabulous, rugged, ladies-man, playboy features, and he says to me, ever so succinctly, "Bugger off, fatty". And on that note, I shall do just that. |
