Now for some real news

Good news everyone! Robert T. Whoriskey is alive and well. It's been yonks since we've heard from the thran cunt, so it was a joy to open up gmail and have a lovely long e-mail from him waiting... (Nice pic of Norwich there - although i did put 'Norwich is rubbish' in the search engine.)

Anyway, here's some words that came right out of the man's mouth and/or fingers:

hey crown princes of shin and shuvel, first of all i must apologise for my long silence for i have had many things on my plate but also i am a diagnosed technophobic ballbag who only recently began to use his phone. Anyhoo i will begin this thinly desguised apology with a rather over indulgent update on my activitys in sasanach(think thats how spell it, no grade in pass irish), first of all things are quite good havent had my heart broken and i still havent got the enevitible bollocking from my tutors for my obvious alcoholism and racist jokes (once my tutor asked me what my work was like last year and i told him that i dident do that much last year, i just drank)

ive wrote a few things i think you gays might like, one really nice harmonic thingy wrote while i couldent use my fingers much and a nice tapping thingy that might sound good on keyboards il probably write loads more stuff when i get home. im wet thinking about hearing the new stuff from angelo and bad boat (tuggers i only listen to the super 8kids album more than your last ep its one of my most played on itunes and every time i listen to it i feel afraid of you and your villainous brain) o yeah i put "staish"into itunes and requested track names ant they came up they even gave genre. When i think of you gays (Diarmuid Daniel and Connor ect) back home my wee heart swells with pride because i know your all pure genius' who make letterkenny seem like the epicentre of good irish music/music and not the center of the donegal cattle trade.

Recently ive been reading and re-reading your blogs, very very funny, ive showed my friends here, they dont really get it but as stephen hawkins once wrote "who gives a fuck about stupid people anyway" feel free to stick some of this e mail up there if you want or even give people an update of my adventures

oh yeah got a job the other day in a pub, and got an offer of a job illustrating for this company that a friend of mine from my time in limavady set up in nottingham...any way give us an update on the craic with use and yer adventures. recently i bought the alias and ehren album which is one of the nicest thing that was ever in my ear, pure snowey beautifulness, o and ive also been listening to earth, four tet and the ex-models who i seen recently and it was the best gig ive seen since watching this drunk guy fall over and land on the back of his head outside milan last year, made a sound like bonk, how is every one back home anyway lots of glove hope this finds you all well, say hi to your mums for me. taigs out ....bye.

lots of glove to you too rob :)
