R6 - thanks for asking, yes I have been poorly sick with the blasted flu, nearly gone now.

Mr NICK - Happy Birthday, I'm 40 tomorrow and not looking forward to it. I'd rather go to sleep for the day but family insist on taking me out tomorrow.

Clarky - you can have all my cookies but the chocolate stays with me.

JOE - this SLICK track seems to causing a bit of a stir, perhaps you ought to put it out on your next album. Is there going to be a DVD for this tour? We do keep asking but no response yet Joe.

Phygdom - I have friends in London and they think everyone past Watford are northerners. hah. Us lot in the middle of the UK say ask not arsk. We're not posh at all. Tickles me how Londoners say F*ck they say Fa*k and friends are refered to as "poor cows".

We have the snow today.

I'm 40 today, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

Thanks everybody, went out yesterday and ate loads of chinese food, gots lots of chocolate for today. Does 40 mean you can do what you like now.

Have a good weekend everyone.

Afternoon Satch fans

Well, the Satch music magic has struck again, Sunny Monster cleaned up at his first show of the year yesterday. SBM cast the spell yesterday. Thanks Joe, there's magic in your music.

Do you think we are better, more patient drivers with Satch blaring in our cars. If there's a traffic jam I think well more time to listen to Joe.

Jimbojim - hope your sister continues on the up.

Phygdom - keep up the dog walking. We have just managed to get our hands on a field to excercise my lot.

LGU - don't worry, keep the posts coming.

Ovation = All the best for your mom in law. I don't have one, she died 20 years ago.

Happy Mondays everyone.

LOL Sharon

Happy Birthday Master Yoda - have fun.

Hi JOE, seeing as how you are posting again would you tell us if you are making a DVD of this tour, you know we'll buy it. Don't forget to wear those trousers and that denim jacket.

Hi Joe

Ethn- Spiderman is ok, not as good as LOTR

Joshjwc - Old trick for calming nerves, imagine your audience with no clothes on, apparently works everytime. Can't remember who dished this advice out but its years old.

Joe, have you ever felt nervous, do you still get the collywobbles, how do you stop your nerves from twanging the wrong string.

Question

I want to buy a DVD that is only available from amazon.com (USA) and play it in my UK DVD player, will it work?

Bought some apples yesterday apparently from America, well done USA for putting the taste back in the old apple. Can't touch us on the chocolate though, Cadbury rules.

R6 - Thanks for that

Phygdom - might look at Google then

Mr Nick - how much are they then?

Ethn - Don't knock the Mummy, I like these two films, fictional fantasy but watchable. One of my faves is the 5th Element.

Clarky - we don't get out of prams, we throw rattles out of them.

Just bought the Young Ones on DVD, funny stuff. ha ha.

Have a good weekend everybody and eat lots of lentils.

phygdom - ta muchly.

you still excercising those pooches.

Ethn - those are strong feelings re Mummy 2. I have similar angry feelings about Robbie Williams, I loathe this man completely. Probably one of the most talentless gonks on the planet.

Thank goodness Satch is in our world. Here to save us from crap music.

Happy Birthday Ya Yo

Happy 100 Anibur & Dragonchild

Narface - no to bellbottoms.

I don't like Mondays, it means we haven't won the lottery and it's back to work. Blah

Sunny Monster won again on Saturday, judge donated gifts and we came home with a Scooby Doo Cup and Saucer, just right for tea and biccies. Chocolate ones of course.

HELP

We joined Freeserve anytime a couple of months ago and since then, whenever I go into a website where there are photos all I get is a box with a red cross in the top left hand corner. Tried the Joan Satriani link but there are no pictures.

Computer buffs, what's up with my puter.

Puzzled

Cleetus - hope you're kitty's ok

Local Person - Are you going to be some kind of Engineer then, I do know that the Building Industry is crying out for good engineers, might be worth looking at, unless you are going to eventually become a music artist.

Dragonchild - Get the Extremist.

R6, RDG, Cleetus happy birthdays hope you all had good ones.

JOE - Congrats on the Grammy Nomination and The Governor's Award. Well done Joe.

Come back to the UK soon, we are still being tortured by bad music.

Andy Pandy has lost his guitar teacher, looks like he has gone and got himself a recording contract and has to move to London permanently. His name is Martin Inman and he's a bit of a cool guy.

Hi Joe, how ya doin.

Not been on for a while, computer playing silly buggers.

Got some doggy news, my Sunny Monster beat off competition from 160 Dobermanns on Friday in Manchester to take his second Challenge Certificate, one more win like that and he's a Champion. JOE you're music is holding my nerve, when we go into the show ring and judges are making the final cut I am whispering to myself, play to me Joe, keep us together. Belly Dancer was whirring in my head on Friday, must have done the trick cause we danced off with all the Dobie prizes.

You're my mascot Joe

Aftertran- good luck with your surgery. Hope all goes well. Just think of all those nurses fussing round you.

Food for the day, chocolate and Walkers plain crisps.

Up to 170.

ha, there we go, still don't have as much time as some people who shall remain namesless, and who are on here typing furiously every second. (only kidding)

Berkley Boy - You're a lucky person, memories to treasure.

Jelly Man - where did this come from, not local anymore. Bet you got stuck around Junction 10 on the M6, it's the notorious bottle neck of the UK. Traffic jams, how we hate um, hope you took some Joe to listen to.

Phygdom - still walking those dogs then, how many do you have.

Satch Fans - are any of you cute enough to be expecting some valentine cards tomorrow. It's an excuse to eat more chocolate. ha ha.

Many march in the anti-war march on Saturday here in the UK. Let's have no war and lots of peace and chocolate. Oh and Joe of course.

Happy Valentine's day everybody, it is a load of slush mush though, still, gives some of us a bit of a giggle. My husband's valentine from me is where his card is to me. In the shop. A local shop for local people.

Happy Days everybody

Jellyman - been on yer site, looks good young un, good name too.

Phydom - managed to get on your site, looks good too, couldn't hear yer tracks though, could be my puter.

Crushing Day blew my speakers, bugger, got to get them repaired or replaced, using the speakers on the tv for the moment, 4 of them, they sound great.

Hope everyone had a good weekend, I'm recovering from a hangover, drunken stuff and all that.

Mowlie - that post code thing sounds about right.

Michelle - Well said, better to be who you really are than who people think you should be, if they don't like it then tough, they're not your real friends anyway.

Rush & Liefson any day.

Anybody tried chocolate and crisps yet? Gotta be plain crisps though.

LOL Sharon

Clarky - happy 400th, just shows who has the most time on their hands.

Ha, ha. only kidding, you help loads on here, for free too with a bit of humour chucked in here and there.
