Looking forward to seeing a new genesis of an old favourite. I would hope that a nod will be given to the history of the place, especially regarding the name, and that not all ties with the judiciary will be lost? Would be very sad if Tilted Wig became a name only, with no evidence in the bar as to how it got the name.....

Magic, thanks!!

Tragic City Thieves BUGGER!!!!!! Can they go on later instead of earlier? Or at original time??? I really dont want to miss them but I think I'd be pushing my luck if I left a wedding reception after only an hour. They're so great they should be topping the bill in any case! Their gig at King Tut's last weekend got brilliant reviews.

Dammit thats early. I'm going to be in trouble, I can tell.....

What time will Tragic City Thieves be onstage on Saturday? I have to go to a bloody wedding but am going to leave early so I can see them and need times tonarrange transport back to town!!

The rather fabulous Robyn Hitchcock will play the Lemon Tree on Friday 9 April. Very excited about this already!!

About bloody time they were back where they belong on the date they always play!! Hate Warehouse as a venue and its not the same in October.

Excellent! Thank you! That's cheered up my first day back at work!

Tragic City Thieves Tragic City Thieves are FABULOUS!!!!! Saw them at King Tuts a few weeks ago and loved them brilliant presence and a great sound. Would love to see them again.

Can we have Tragic City Thieves please? I saw them in King Tuts at the weekend and they were fabulous (though not as fabulous as the sex god that is Har Mar Superstar who they were supporting. He kissed me twice. And sucked my lower lip. I nearly wet myself......)

Kiss tickets I think they go on sale tomorrow morning.

I started watching Drag Me To Hell on Saturday (my husband has sophisticated movie taste) but have reached an age where old ladies removing their falsers and gumming the chins of young ladies, who are then going to kill a kitten is beyond my tolerance (or stomach strength) so I retired to a different room and read a nice book instead.

Signed... ...and circulated to half the office and all other likely suspects and easily bullied individuals.

You were encouraged to continue and work hard by the glass of cider raised helpfully to your lips each time you lifted yourself up. F

dangly bits I'll edit them. I will however put them all up on Facebook which doesn't seem to have an anti-nudity policy,unlike Bebo, so all who want to see him in all his glory can see it there! Fiona

Mr Moorings - porn shots We have some photos and I'll try to get them to you asap. I think all the competitors did really really well - especially given how freezing it was in the alley!! Great fun again. Fiona

Dammit Bollocks - I'd just about recovered from your ghost stories of a few years ago and now I'm all freaky again. I think I'll revert to teenage years and visit the ladies with a friend or two.

I'll lend you one if you like. And a feather boa for that saucy touch. Fiona

Teabags bags It was slightly alarming, especially from my viewpoint on the stage trying to judge the contestants in a professional manner..... He definitely won on cheers - his 'spreading-the-arse-cheeks' pose will stay with those who saw it for a very long time,...... Sadly his athletic skills were less dynamic. I might bring surgical gloves for tomorrow's event in case he manages to display any more of his internal organs.

I actually think you might be serious. OW!!!!!!8o

OFF?? Well its nicely reattached if that is the case! I can't help but suspect you are exaggerating somewhat.....

Sorry hon! Mind you - I think his eyebrow will still look interesting as far off as May...... I was (and still am) VERY angry about this, and am, in a way, glad I wasn't there as I don't believe my temper would have helped the situation any. The Moorings absolutely does not need total idiots of this type turning up. They have their own skanky little places to hang out and this is exactly why the rest of us don't go to them.
