Well you'll be pleased to know that I think Queen are the worst band of all
time... I cringe every time their songs are played at places and just about
every single person turns into a wierdo and does that "if i shut my eyes and
jiggle about a bit, i will think i am in the band" thing.

Just out of interest I am also not in any shape or form a Man City
sympathiser... I am a reds season ticket holder...

I am not offended by such material - after all, if I was then I was have
turned off James and his listeners' constant attacks on my character!

You've rekindled my desire to get back in touch with the Minister For
Cheadle Hulme after our last contact back 14 years ago... I will try writing
to her old cheadle hulme address and see if she facies joining in our
facinating debates... last I heard she was dating Craig Cash of the then KFM
104.9

And to close... a poem that I wrote James early on in the Reeve Emporium:

Later on in the studio
We shall have Ms Rita Roe
But before that time falls
We shall be having some phone calls

Oh the hours of work that went into that... and he read it out at the time I
asked him to...

I'm not sure if he was in the Royle Family - my knowledge of that programme isn't very extensive. He did make brief appearances on TV, usually in sketch shows...

Craig Cash played the dopey son-in-law in the Royle family but i remember his KFM days. He used to have the 10pm onwards spot once filled by JHR. Quite a good...

It's scary on many levels. Not the least of which is that you have not only worked out where he lived but that you also went round there and left him...

Well I'm not taking all the blame... I was only following the lead of the obsessed Minister For Cheadle Hulme. I had never met James at all while the Nocturnal...

Well I'm glad you cleared that up, because between that and the "foisting letter" misunderstanding, I was beginning to picture you as some kind of Lancastrian...
