Philip Whiteland - the man behind Josiah and Archibald (which makes it sound like we're in a queue!)
It's been described as "almost Pythonesque" and "Gone With The Wind meets Airplane", and it's FREE today: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Jambalaya-ebo...
Some musings about tribute bands and the process of ageing, which you might enjoy.http://philwhiteland.blogspot.co.uk/2...
Sounds like a lively show. ;)
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "Sounds like a lively show. ;)"I've probably made it sound more geriatric than it actually was. The band were very good and some of the audience were dancing in the aisles (including me). It just made me think.
So there wasn't a fleet of ambulances on high alert then?
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "So there wasn't a fleet of ambulances on high alert then?"What, for me or the rest of them?
For the older and frailer segment of the audience...
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "For the older and frailer segment of the audience..."Oh, me then ;-)
Ok. Older and frailer than you!
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "Ok. Older and frailer than you!"Oddly enough, an ambulance did shoot past us on the way home. Perhaps they had missed me and were trying to catch up. If you're interested, the group in question were The Bohemians - worth a look.

Pretty good - sounds just like them!
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "Pretty good - sounds just like them!"Oddly enough, I saw another bunch a few months ago on a Warners break (old and frail you see). They mostly played it for laughs but the lead singer had (in my opinion) a better voice than the guy in The Bohemians.

Any help with this would be much appreciated :-)
I'm not sure I dare...
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "I'm not sure I dare..."Ah g'wan. You know you want to :-)
Welll..... maybe...
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "Welll..... maybe..."Is that a definite maybe or only a possible maybe?
Its a probable maybe.
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "Its a probable maybe."I'll bet you revolt against all multi-choice questions, don't you?
Yes - so restrictive. They don't allow for subtlety.
What to do on a wet and miserable Sunday afternoon? Well, you could take advantage of the last few hours of my 99p sale on all books until midnight tonight :-)http://www.amazon.co.uk/Philip-Whitel...
Or sleep. which is what I did
You're not getting quite into the spirit of the thing!
Well I have bought, and read, all your books already. Life is now flat and empty...
Is that as a consequence of reading my books?
Not at all, its because I have no more new ones to look forward to. Hint, hint...
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "Not at all, its because I have no more new ones to look forward to. Hint, hint..."Well, thanks for the vote of confidence, but I really need to sell some copies of Book 3 first
Good luck with that - its a very enjoyable book.
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "Good luck with that - its a very enjoyable book."Thanks. I meant to thank you for the rating as well but forgot.

Even if you don't like the article, you can always enjoy the picture of the cute dog ;-)
Well at least you didn't have my mini-skirt problem...
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "Well at least you didn't have my mini-skirt problem..."Perhaps I would have had more success if I had worn one!
Ummmm... I have a few doubts about that!
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "Ummmm... I have a few doubts about that!"Huh, for all you know I might turn a very shapely ankle ;-)
Well if you wore stilettoes with the mini you probably would turn your ankle.
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "Well if you wore stilettoes with the mini you probably would turn your ankle."I would guarantee it. I don't know how people walk in those things.
There's a review of A Kick at the Pantry Door in today's Derby Telegraph:http://www.thisisderbyshire.co.uk/Fre...
yep - i agree with her
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "yep - i agree with her"Well, thank you kindly!
Do you know what beats me? Apart, that is, from Miss Whiplash, Flat 2a, Moore, Moore, Moore St, Little Cuttingham. How can you have a book that is the third in a series in which the first has sold over 5,500 copies and the second over 1,500, which has received excellent reviews all round, but which doesn't sell at all????
Gingerlily - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. wrote: "Its a mystery!"That's probably where I'm going wrong, it should have been a mystery - The Case of the Kick at the Pantry Door!
Who ate all the pies?
