Hi all,
More belatedly than I ever planned, here comes the first (and possibly the last) Bizarre Question and Answer session, where I answer your questions (only no-one sent any, but never mind)...
Q) What do you make of the events on the internet of the past month, with major sites being hacked into?
Saul Maidup, Lapland, Somewhere.
A) I think it is great. It may be coincidental, but all of a sudden more visitors are flooding through my sites. I had an astonishing 64 visitors to my Palace site a week last Friday. Therefore I fully welcome the events of the past week.
Q) As you currently work for a holiday firm can you recommend anywhere to go on holiday this year?
Judith Chalmers, Norfolk, England.
A) I wouldn't recommend anywhere in particular, but having seen "The Beach" on Friday night I certainly wouldn't recommend any deserted islands off the coast of Thailand.
Q) What do you think of Madonna's version of the song "American Pie"?
Neil Taylor, Croydon, England.
A) I dare say I'm in full agreement with you Neil - it is complete rubbish and a good reason to prevent anyone from ever releasing a cover version again.
Q) Why did you just use my name for the above question when you made it up yourself, and why are you doing it again now?
Neil Taylor, Croydon, England.
A) There are several reasons for this. Firstly I wanted to ask the question so that everyone would know that I think the record is complete mince. Secondly it keeps list members on their toes, knowing that if I do a "Question and Answer" week again they'll be prepared with questions. Finally, I know that you personally are a big Don McLean fan and would be the list member most likely to agree with me. Hope that clears that up and that you don't mind it too much!
Q) In the film "Enemy of the State" Will Smith says that he likes to use his food blender as he finds it therapeutic. Do you find any household task therapeutic?
Ann Other, Swansea, Wales.
A) Yes, I do find certain household tasks therapeutic. These involve: Testing the durability of my pillows, checking the batteries on my remote controls, making sure my refridgerator is cold... okay, seriously... no!
Have a good week!
Tony
