BETTY SWOLLOCKS?!!
It's hot! It's 90 degrees plus in Wales! Now, to some of you that might not seem very hot, but for a country where you'll normally find your eye's freezing shut when you blink it's pretty damn hot!! We're just not used to it, not that you'll find me complaining, I love the heat, I am half Jamaican on my Dad's friend's side!
Farmers here are feeding their chickens ice cubes to stop them laying hard boiled eggs!
We've had about 4 or 5 days of it now, which is classed as a major heatwave here. I know that in other parts of the world this is only a minor heat "ripple" but we like to exagerate!
I got bad sunburn yesterday on my legs and on my shoulders, I put moisterising cream on my shoulders but my legs were so bad I had to take a viagra just to keep the sheets off them while I was sleeping! (the old ones are the best eh?? lol).
Enough of this tomfoolery!
Portugal beat England in the World Cup soccer quarter-final! England lost on penalties and had a man sent of!! Deja Vu??!! Portugal now play France in the semi-final on Wednesday and once again my loyalties are torn. I have a few very good French friends plus the guy who owns my local bar is French and he gives me the odd free beer so I dont want to get on the wrong side of him now do I??
Sunday night is usually guitar rehearsal time for me, I usualy practice the Spiny set and try a few new things to see if they are Spinyable! However, cos we dont have a gig for another 2 weeks I gave it a miss last night and had a bit of cooking to do for a "mate" of mine! Earlier in the day I asked her what she wanted and she said "anything". So I made Morrocan Lamb on a bed of spicy rice only to find she didnt like lamb or rice!!! So I ordered Nandos instead and put the lamb in the freezer! Then I tried a new chat-up line that I've been working on for a few months now...I said....."baby, tonight I want to be your ventrilaquist!!" "What do you mean?" she replied. "I want to stick my hand up your skirt and make your lips move!" came my witty retort!
On her way out she told me where to stick my Nandos! :-(
Still, life goes on eh. Next time I'll practice the Spiny set and forget about the cooking! I guess that's why Spiny have taken 10 years to become an overnight success!! I should pracitce more. I've been invited to form a SuperGroup with myself as the frontman, but until David Soul, Nana Miscouri, Barry Manillow and Richard Clayderman are all free I'm not interested!
Right, time for some shade, the heat is getting to me! There are two occasions when an ice cold beer seems like the drink of the gods, one is the very first beer after a gig once all the gear is packed up and I've driven home and just sat down to relax, the other is on a mega-hot day in the sun, sitting outside a bar watching the world (and scantily clad females) go by!
Gimme a beeeeeeer! mmmmmm. Later, hic, hic!

Andy,
you can't cheer for the team that brought your home country team down- they'll take your passport away for that, you know, I saw it in the MI6 secret manual.
It's going to be a Germany-France final, says I. Of course, I also predicted Argentina, England and Brazil would win, what do I know?
The best relief for hot weather is a warm cup of tea. Honestly.
Cheers,
AM

Andy, can't figure out why that line didn't work, maybe it was the delivery? Instead of practicing guitar, you should give your delivery a night of rehearsing? who am I kidding? Crack a beer open mate, heat up the lamb, dig in.

Hi Andy,
I'm back! Thanks for dropping by.
I thought you guys would welcome the warm weather. I suggest you go swimming, that will cool you off.
