Don't knock it - my self-published magazine called "evo - the thrill of bestiality and crochet" is doing rather well using the same technique

I think JL supplies it direct for fear of embarrassment...

As much as I'm a fanboy of Meaden's writing, a magazine entirely about Aston's doesn't sound like the kind of thing that floats my boat

It's a coffee table item for the braying types. Have you ever met a nice (modern) Aston owner ? There's probably an offer in there to buy the 007 box set

What about a nice South African, who happens to own an Aston too?

I know two people with modern Astons. One is a pediatrian, cares for poorly kiddie-widdies, and is a thoroughly all-round decent chap. The other owns a strip club and a chain of "massage parlours", and isn't shy in his attempts to recruit new "staff". Make of that what you will...

Was that Weekending or Spitting IMage? Blast from the past though, I can still remember some of the words.

Wasn't it the B-side of the record "Chicken Song" by Spitting Image ? Its the time of year
Now that Spring is in the air
When those two wet gits with their girly curly hair
Make another song for moronic holidays
That nauseate-ate-ate
In a million different ways
From the shores of Spain
To the coast of Southern France
No matter where you hide
You just can't escape this dance Hold a chicken in the air
Stick a deckchair up your nose
Buy a jumbo jet
And then bury all your clothes
Paint your left knee green
Then extract your wisdom teeth
Form a string quartet
And pretend your name is Keith Skin yourself alive
Learn to speak Arapahoe
Climb inside a dog
And behead an eskimo
Eat a Renault Four with salami in your ears
Casserole your gran
Disembowel yourself with spears The disco is vibrating
The sound is loud and grating
Its truly nauseating
Let's do the dance again Hold a chicken in the air
Stick a deckchair up your nose
Yes you'll hear this song in the holiday discos
And there's no escape in the clubs or in the bars
You would hear this song if you holidayed in Mars Skin yourself alive
Learn to speak Arapahoe
Climb inside a dog
And behead an eskimo
Now you've heard it once
Your brain will spring a leak
And though you hate this song
You'll be humming it for weeks
