Surprise, surprise Must be read with a French accent, it being Semaine Internationale de la Francophonie. En ennyway where was I? Ah yes. I had a surprise visit yesterday lunchtime from Monsiuer NeoSuperVital. He brought good company, a great gift for the child and copies of both of his releases. I have only managed to listen to Use What You Got but so far I am very impressed. By the way, vous avez noticed how I threw in the ol’ bit of francais there, oui?

After NeoSuperVital left I got to thinking about all these creative people I know doing what they want to do and I had a brief but very indulgent moment of self-pity. But then Garman squawked at me and reminded me to finish changing his nappy and bring him for a walk.
