I could tell you but then I would have to kill you I love Italics You ever read 'The Temper' About some wizardy dude who is angry and smashes toy boats up for his daughter or summat...? You damn right about the field day he would have there. I visited the place when I was studying music and the...

There's a funny thing happening today in the music industry... A lot of bands are recording their pieces using analogue equipment (reel to reel and valve desks etc) and then they release the material on a bloody CD!!!!! Is it just me or is that a bit mental? Kinda defeating the objective? I...

Genius? I am sure he would laugh his ass off at that. From what my puny little mind can work out, he would hate the fact that we would consider him a genius... I don't know why he did what he did with word. I just know I can identify with it and it also gives me great reassurance to know I...

I couldn't have my pic on the wall, would scare the shit out of the patrons. What do you do in Stratford then? Act? Seems that's the place for it. Good old Shaky and that! And what's sulkpot?

Yeah, I been there before, just the once and yeah, I remember it been serene! The dirty duck (i think it was called), had a bevvy there. U are a lucky person to live there.

See, that's why I still think of Preston as a town and have to mentally correct myself before saying anything. I like the place. Not been boozing there though. Tend to stay in with my band or friends. There are far too many peacocks out there. Too many fights. Fuck that for a laugh. Its all...

Beautiful city only recently discovered by me! I love Preston! Small world Sulkpot! how long you been in Preston?

I think I need to go back to Crime and Punishment. I missed it. I think i lack patience. I want a writer that kicks me in the bollocks first. Fydor didn't do that to me. Who kicks you in the balls (other than hank)?

Thanks man, so next time, should i say earmuffs?

Nice! Only ever been once. Loved it. Vollendam is summat else. I remember houses lining a road into the place and it ran level with the lake... the houses facing out to that view. It seemed that almost every dorma-bungalow had a chair in the attic facing out with shelves of books behind them. I...

And thank Fuck for the swearing. You never know. This might of been a forum full of fake fucks!!!

The other side of the North Sea... Norway or something? Nice one. Orrell is a wart on the arse of Wigan. In between Liverpool and Manchester. A quiet place. I thank you for all of the comments and recommendations. I have only ever posted in a couple of forums before and this is by far the most...

Thank you for being so kind. As for being the anti-thesis... I think Bukowski himself did say about Tolstoy (for example) that 'I look and I look but I just don't see the greatness...' I think, in my humble opinion that he did want to find something special in those writers, 'writers with guts'...

Forgive me, this is my first post here. I found Mr Bukowski through The film Factotum. I hope there are now precious fans who might not like that. I would like to think that the readers of his beer sh*ts can appreciate that i do not have time to sift through pages of inappropriate and congested...
