I PVR'd it off my Freeview box while I watched Match
Of The Day 2 and Sky plussed the 'Fringe' pilot on Sky
One. Would've liked to have seen the thing of guitars
on Beeb one too, but you can't have everything, and I
expect they'll repeat it endlessly.

Hmm...enjoyed Sean Lock, and eddie Izzard's finale....Minchin was shite I
thought.

Can't agree, bland blearghhy blumf.

Agreed. Weird doesn't begin to describe that girl. I know she thinks she's
kooky, but she looks fucking straaaange.

> *shrug*: everyone else
Yeah, pretty much. I though Carr was ok actually, and I really enjoyed Frank
Skinner's Osama ukulele song.
Biggest laugh of the night (it didn't take much) went to Eddie izzard's
bible/Noah doobrey, class.

Yes, well don't feel the need to post about it afterwards.

Went out came back in to see Germ Greer twittering on about amnesty.
Thank god for the off switch!

Always the shittest seats at a comedy gig. Well done. Did it not
occurr to you why they don't get booked up first?

Great. We'll al be looking forward to that then. a hundred lines of
your interminable screed because you've been for your one night out a
year. Does the DSS fund it?
And thanks for letting everyone know where you'll be and when.
If a drinks carton gets impaled on your pointy head, don't bother
looking round. It could be anyone.

Although I didn't see it (I'm going to watch the repeat on Friday) I
can't believe he could have been *that* bad. I saw him doing standup a
couple of weeks ago and he was very funny.

Steve Coogan hasn't done anything any good for years - fool and his

Anyway barker you've had two attempts at a *stand up V Tv comedy* thread
already . Both were dull as fuck.

That was not in his stand-up spot, but in a really bad sketch with Lisa

As fate would have it, I've also got a couple of seats at
Steve Coogan's Norwich gig. One of the clients at our daycare unit
'really' wants to go see Steve Coogan, and, as I don't get out
much and everyone else is busy, I'm quite happy to accompany him.
I should mention that I'm on the theatre's mailing list. They give me
24 hours warning of any gig so I can get online and get the best seats.
Which is row M in the stalls. It's just far enough back to be on the right
level to see the stage, and also there is a crosswise aisle gap between
rows L and M. And there are about three steps up between L and M.
so if, for instance, there was somebody in the front row with a huge
pointy head, then it couldn't get in our way at all.
Of course, when I tell them I'm booking for me and a special needs person,
they always offer us the front row seats for free. But I always decline
the offer. Why should special needs people tolerate the really rubbishy
front row seats? Even if they do come for free?
Did you actually accept those seats, for free Mr Barker?
Well obviously, you did. And the best of luck to you,
Steve Coogan is doing a three night stand.
I'm going to be there for all three nights.
I have a box booked for one of the niights.
I'm going to scan the front row of the stalls
every night, just in case I spot your pointy head.
We could have a right good old chat.
Seriously, Mr Bsrker, we have the most ideal situation,
for you to vent your spleen.
You can meet me face to face, and tell me what a vile horrible
person I am. What a horrible mother I am. You can call
me 'scum' right there in my face. I will arrange to meet you,
if you like, so you can tell me exactly what you think of me.
I know it's not really fair to confront somebody off of usenet,
It's not as if I've come looking for you.
But you've been really offensive to me. And I mean
REALLY offensive,
I think I deserve an apology.
Don't you??

Why am I not surprised to see you laughing along to jokes about pointy
heads? Presumably the sight of somebody afflicted with Down's Syndrome
has you rollig in the aisles.
As for the bizarre detail cited regarding your seat, well, it does
reek not a little of somebody striving hard to authenticate a lie.

I'll print out your comments regarding ticket allocation and ensure
they are passed to the theatre manager (from whom I obtained the
tickets - at face value, I hasten to add).
By the way, my understanding is that the Theatre Royal offer 50%
discounts to disabled people. They do not give out free tickets to the
disabled.

No, Mrs Plowman. Whoops, I mean, 'Rosie'. I've explained why I think
you think you are an embittered hypocrite and I stand by that. I have
two disabled children who have been cruelly referenced in UMTM but,
for some still unexplained reason, you appear not to have noticed
this. Your dismissive comments viz-a-vie autism were equally
insulting.
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Those gaffes about free entry and the
private box have really dropped you in it, haven't they? I think
coupled with your husband's comments about the JLP that you have both
landed yourself in very, very hot water.
I'll forward your false claims about the Theatre Royal's booking
procedures to the appropriate party along with contact details for you
and your husband. I will also alert the East Anglian Childrens'
Hospice about the various claims you have made regarding fundraising
for them. It'll be interesting to see what they - along with the JLP -
make of the Plowmans' internet behaviour.

You loon,
Oh please do Barker. I'd just love to see you do that. Please do try
and prove that Rosie is Mrs Plowman. or me.
Then I'll prove that she's actually in Canada helping her mother with
her stepfather who is dying of terminal cancer.
I've told you before Barker, I don't need to post as anyone else to
rip the piss out of you. I can do it in a single line with one hand
tied behind my back.

What now you are going to equate taking the piss out of your pointy head
with something else? *you* are the one with the pointy head barker.
But please, tell me about this

Funny when you threaten to come round to my house /business/ met me in a
publiuc plce then this is OK but you don't like someone else doing it -
you start whining for security or police.

You'll forward fuck all barker - like your writ to me or the police or

I have a four person box booked, to see Steve Coogan.
That's a fact.

Oh yes they do. Sometimes they offer a block of 10 or 20 seats
to Mencap, or other charitable organisations.They give them away,
for free. It's quite true, and they won't deny it.
>You seem to be the one nursing a splenetic grudge. It's all you ever

I didn't book it, but I am accompanying a client who did.
>I'll forward your false claims about the Theatre Royal's booking

They're not false claims. Give them a ring, and ask if they
allocate free seats for disabled people. You will find that
they do, and that I'm correct in saying that it's usually the front row.
That's where the gaps for wheelchairs are located.
I've been there enough times to know it's a regular practice.
Why you think they would take offence at being accused of giving free
seats to disadvantaged people, I really don't know.
You are such a knobhead. I'll wait for the appropriate party
to contact me then, shall I? And give me a dressing down for
publicly leaking their charitable activities?
Your apparent lack of any edifying pursuit leaves
me speechless. I can't believe you have nothing better
to do than make a complete idiot of yourself on usenet.
But if that's what keeps you going, don't let me stop you.

Are you selectively myopic? What part of "the Theatre Royal has no
boxes" do you not understand?
What's that you say - you want to sidestep that issue to go along with
the fallacy that "Rosie" is a real person rather than accept that
she's been exposed as a liar and a fraud?
