I was trying to be funny with my original comment, but even though it wouldn't have served any useful publicity for this show, wouldn't any publicity help show people what IWW is all about, and perhaps generate even more interest next year?

Taxi or transvestite?

Oh, fair enough about being funny but it did raise a couple of good points. But, I think the feeling with VM is that we don't want to court too much controversy, just enough to get people there in the first place but not enough to get people ranting and raving about it in the letters page. We get a lot of publicity through the other events.

However, I do think that the paper should be a bit more proactive about attending theatrical events in the area - but they do always wait until they are invited and until they receive the free tickets.

I only have vague memories towards the end of that night, suffering flash backs keep telling myself it must have been Gayle unless........!

Don't forget as a male I need that extra re-assurance!

Well that's rubbish on the paper's behalf. They should be out scouting for things to review. I know they always complain they are under staffed, but there's way too much copy filling at the moment, what with another bonny baby competition started. I can't wait for the best looking pooch 'n' moggy one to hopefully start again soon.

Less, I told you at the AccyWeb meet that you need to see your Doctor regarding your sick nightly dreams. You could get arrested just for thinking the things you told me.

The crown stays on my head, you can both fight over my gilded sceptre or even the Royal ring.

"SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE
International Women's Week
FINAL EVENT
Something for Everyone at Accrington Town Hall, Saturday, 11th March 2006 - 10am to 3pm
Arts, crafts, belly dancing, tai chi, line dancing, aromatherapy, other activities - FREE DROP IN
Creche provided for young children."

Well, now that this International Womens Week is finally coming to a close (Thank god we won't see it again for another year, and hopefully never), what about one final idea - this is just to show how magnaminous us blokes can be in putting up with this idiocy.

If Gayle wants to pack 'em in at tomorrow's bash, why not get a radio or laptop in, and tune in to the commentary on the Stanley V Bulls game? This is the most important game of the season as far as Stanley is concerned and I am quite sure if this was advertised outside t'town hall alot of the local lads would pop in to listen, while at the same time having a good laugh watching lesbian karate killers and 'owd grannies strutting their 6-pack bellys.
