I seem to have been a tad remiss in up-dating the web-site, mainly because I've been trying to get my head around the new blog we've set up at live journal. It seemed an easier way of keeping the diary up to date, and hey, now we can do the whole interactive bit and you can, if you feel so inclined, contribute. So come and join us and tell us what you think, it's open to everyone and we value your input. See you there.

I guess we've been a little quiet of late, principally, sad to say, because we've lost the first of our original idiots. Chris Taylor who originally joined us way back when we supported Kurt Wagner, has returned home to his native Canada, having been in London since 1989. We'll miss his solid dependable bass almost as much as we'll miss his geniality. Thanks for everything mate, life just won't be the same without you. Sorry we never got to play those European shows that I think we always dreamt we would do together. Hoping that yourself and Flic find everything in Ottawa ("Don't' tip the boat over"). I know we'll meet up again, on one side of the pond or the other, sometime in the future. Cheers big fella. It was fun.

Before I get too maudlin and on a brighter note, we did manage to get Chris in the studio before his departure and put down the rhythm section for 11 new tracks.

We've also managed to play a gig at Bush Hall

As ever, thanks for taking the time to see if there's still a pulse.
Be good and take care

Love the idiot son
