Apparently Chris Judge Smith of Van der Graaf Generator wrote the song "Gob on You", as featured in Not the Nine O'Clock News. An achievement that rivals Peter Hammill's appearance in pink tights singing about King Arthur on Playaway

Really ... that pym fortyn got a right slating in Searchlight, desrevedly so from what I've read there and elsewhere. Bit extreme shooting the guy, normally these fascist groups self-destruct due to in-fighting anyway. There's a round of that going on in the BNP again at the moment, which was nice!
I work with some Dutch quite regulalry from Rotterdam and opinion is evenly divided between heroin and cocaine - err.. i mean it surprised me when they seemed to quite like this pym bloke and i'd thought they were kinda normal peeps, perhaps not! euw!!

No support from me for Fortuyn or his party, it was just the name connection because I saw the shooting piece in The Metro today.
Two more HH connections in The Metro today:
The summit on the future of Iraq took place in Ur
There's a piece that mentions the frightening amount of advertising we are subjected to each day that echoes stuff Grufty Jim has been saying for a while

"The summit on the future of Iraq took place in Ur"
The bloke in charge of overseeing this said on the radio yesterday that it was o fitting that they were having the meeting in the place where civilisation began. I was waiting for him to say "...because we have ended it". He didn't.
