What are you doing here making posts? Why are you not too drunk (or at least too social) to work the handheld?


fluke, you're doing it wrong.

John,well done on your 200th Pogues gig mate,that takes some doing.Can this be you,an old girlfriend of mine was a student in Freiburg,Germany and she once told me of a guy who got her into the Pogues gig in 1991 or 92,when Joe Strummer was in the band,if this is you,my ex-KYM was well pleased and impressed that she got to see The Pogues and Joe Strummer and all for the price of a beer,make no bones about if you had asked KYM.you would have got more then beer that night.But Kym said you were a propper gent,only too willing to help a fellow Pogues fan.We split up in 1994,i moved to Perth,Kym stayed in Sydney,but she never forgot you John.So once again,congratulations and i hope your liver stands up for the next 200!
