      I propose a poetry competition in honour of inaugural GD of the year and all round nice guy Tony Kelly. Ill award a prize (probably a pint at the next shindig), so get writing :)

      (and here’s one to start us off…)

      There once was a man called Tony
      whose fingers were long and bony.
      For he clattered away
      on the keyboard all day
      For he was the GD, not a phoney!

      actually Tony…in terms of music is there any particular style I should be looking towards…heavy metal is out to start with….but I could stretch to jazz, folk, pop, indie/grunge,

      I think this might have to be performed on the ‘Trip to Torc’

      Aphra..

      Aphra: Something along the lines of 80s Hair/Glam Metal would be right up Tony’s street.

      Kiss[/quote:d524a68376]mother of god, Dave! is THAT what you think of me?!! Or is this revenge for me guffawing at your ‘Michael Flatley sliding across the floor on his knees’ impression at the last Torc party, eh?!

      Tony,

      I started a poetry competition in your honour! Aphra has promised to write a song for you! Grifmike wrote a Homer-esque Odyssey of your exploits! How can you even think to suggest that we have anything but the greatest of respect for anything you stand for, especially make-up and music combined!

      I’ll say it again, Dave:

      Kiss

      ???!!!
