Well then ...... I wouldn't exactly say that "the Fairports sound like decent people". None of us know what habits they have away from the stage, although they portray a "wholesome image", if you like. Whether or not someone "looks decent", is by the by. You can't judge as book by its cover.

evening pedantic Icey!
Mwhaaaaaaaaaa

[Icey]

No, I'm just stating facts. Look at Ian Drury? He had a lot of fans, I'm sure, and he made some good music. I would've loved to've seen him live back in the day, but the fact remains that his own son tells of a darker side to him that didn't make him very decent at all. The same goes for Sandy Denny. She might've been part of Fairport to all their fans, but she was soaked in drink and drugs. That's not decent, it's decadent.

nobody's perfect Icey..

[Icey]

No, but you speak of them as they are, and when it comes to drug- taking and alcoholism, they DO have a choice.

[tomsk]

OK OO7!

[Icey]

Hmm.

[tomsk]

just enjoy the music for goodness sake!

[Icey]

I do. It's YOU who keeps saying that so-and-so seems like a nice person/people!

[tomsk]

you seemed quite nice!

[Icey]

Well I am. More-so than you know.

[tomsk]

[Icey]

And if I seem niggly at times, it's maybe because I've been interrupted, or I'm tired or something. I don't see the point of negative moods.

[tomsk]

sweet dreams Holmes!
I'm going to test my new inflatable mattress out later today!

[Icey]

Hope it busts, and goes as flat as a pancake!! Serves you right! LOOOOOOOOOL.

[tomsk]

it's fine..
perfect..
But I need to get a proper mattress!

[Icey]

You do indeed, or you'll have back trouble in a few years' time.

[tomsk]

why,
it's as good as a standard mattress surely?

[Icey]

Not a bit of it! Mattresses these days cushion the heavier parts of your body as you turn over during the night. Individual pocketed springs keep you in a natural posture.

[tomsk]

well I wake up feeling refreshed...
