It sounds so stupid, but that’s how it happens. The weirdest thing for me was how quickly things changed from ‘let’s go outside to settle this’ to ‘we’re such great mates’. And not only that, but this scenario seems to happen so often.

I’ve just re-read that I should say I totally agree with your stance of course!

I totally agree on the violence / agressive behaviour – I should have made that point: sorry

Without wishing to sound incredibly old-fashioned, I will not tolerate anyone being aggressive towards Mrs. Toad. Not on, not acceptable, not going to happen. Of course occasionally I will get a kicking for this, but I don’t really mind that. Someone being abusive to my midget companion on the other hand is not going unanswered, beating or not.

Fuck the cunt. Swearing is one thing, but swearing directly at someone in a physically aggressive manner is entirely different. If he reckons he can back that sort of bollocks up with a bit of spirit then good luck to the fucker, but you can’t go being physically intimidating towards somebody that someone cares about without expecting to be called out on it.

I am not having Mrs, Toad threatened. Not by anyone.

“he started swearing at her” -and Matthew, you the man of more fucks than anyone in your (wonderful) blog find that a differentiation from normal speech? Sorry, couldn’t resist; my first day back to you after my nine year old showed me the “Fuck Me…” title the other day and I took my bat home. Keep up the great work on the music. Thanks.

If you were in prison & had had that conversation, you’d be Mommy by now…

The bit I don’t get is the transition, so quickly, from ‘going to bash your head in’ to absolute and total best of friends. It’s almost like there’s a sudden and complete disconnect.

I forgot to say I also met Mia Farrow at the UN last week. Very charming, she was, if a lot smaller/slight(er ?) than I imagined. She was puffing her small chest in an International pissing contest & she appeared to at least be winning the moral argument.

Are you starting, Welsh boy?

Er, actually that should read Welsh boys

Am I running some sort of UK minority refuge here or something?
