I like to dress up as a pantomime cow for visitors, so if you come round I'll pop the cattle on.

I would have succeeded at the Junior Goat Olympics, if it weren't for those medalling kids.

Enjoying an OASIS-aided bounce, RICHARD ASHCROFT returns with a strong solo album

That's reminded me of a doll I saw for sale in Thailand in 2012. Lined up in a normal shop alongside other dolls. 😬

I have a cartoon in the current Private Eye

Cartoon. Two people standing on a stage looking at a third person who is jumping down through a trap door. In the foreground we see the backs of the audience’s heads. One standing people observes “It’s just a stage he’s going through”
