Leeds was the absolute business, the tour just got better & better for me, loved every minute and can't wait to do it all again whenever & wherever possible! Good work Roddy - make sure you get some rest between all these Skabs & Specials gigs though eh?!
I'll be joining you on the rock 'n' roll Dave if nowt shows up soon - 4 weeks to go till redundancy, looks like I'll have to try self-employment again and go back to fixing people's bad backs. Roddy, do you need a roadie/caddy/cleaner matey? Hehe!!

hi roddy and all,well yes these things do happen and im trying me best to put a brave face on things,but life does seem to be knocking me and a few others down at the moment.ive been thinking of going back to training as im thinking to myself i might be better off working for myself but to do the course i want i need to find a job to get the money,its a catch 22 if i sing the truth sort of thing. anyway i must buy you a drink next time i see you roddy as we keep bumping into one another on the street like some poor old souls ha ha ha,there you go im cheering up now. i think seeing the specials put me on a real high and when i got back home,normal life just crept home. anyway people i hope you and i find a job soon and roddy mines a shandy mate ha ha. speak to you later, dave

wouldent it be nice this year if the specials debut album c.d got a 30th 2-disk edtion release to join madness one step beyond deluxe 30th edtion c.d ,what could go on it i hear you ask? well this is what id like to see. 1) a 40 page booklet containing rare photos and notes from the band. 2) rare demos and outtakes. 3) a full unreleased concert recording. 4) a poster of the band 5)a pair of jerrys false teeth (only joking)
hope this puts some of the above in motion for one of the best debuts in history. dave.

good morning roddy,ooops that should now be good afternoon now roddy ha ha.no i havent just got out of bed,mind you being on the dole does make you feel like sinking back into that cant be bothered routine again which i cant afford to do again. ive being writing a few songs again,its funny how lyrics start comming into ones head when your out of work.dont know if i will use them but i tend to write about real life and what i see,other than lovey dovey songs that i cant be Rather Large Bottomd to write at the moment.mind you that big fat rich woman song sounds good mate,i may have a bash at the words if you have a bash at the music ha ha, the woman that moved in next door was a wind up,shes quite nice but she anit rich . im going to watch giant now on dvd,i love that jimmy dean talk later roddy, dave
