rock_bear this morning, it was decided to send out a transatlantic SOS. Lang (wstrnstar) is concerned about beastbriskett. And if Lang is concerned, then Russ is concerned. And if Russ is concerned, the so am I. And so on. The SOS is a simple one. rock_bear. Whilst walking to the theatre, he encounters a group of hairy, sweaty, tattoo-ed roadies/bikers setting up for a live concert of some kind. Apparently, after much polite conversation, window shopping and inhalation of sweaty armpits, it turns out they are setting up for a Christian rock band... C'est la vie... missmish at Nottingham station bearing keys and a pid for the lift. Spent this morning wandering around various agencies before deciding that I was fed up wearing a tie and headed off to meet Greg, a long time friend from my days in the Sealed Knot years ago, for coffee. And found that The Hairy Bikers will be at Waterstones on the 16th. Well, naturally, it would be churlish for me to turn down such an invitation...! 
Took a trip into Southampton today for no good reason other than to go to the sauna. However, in the process, I found that Beaker was no longer working at HMV having taken redundancy and run off laughing manically into the night. Or something like that. Had a "Hairy Biker" luncheon of Vietnamese King Prawn on Sugar Cane, followed by Pho. And all this without having to break my ankle...* Headed for the sauna and managed to bump into none other than Beaker at Forbidden Planet. Seems he is looking to move to Vancouver BC. Alas, alack. Sauna was quiet; middle aged men and twinks. "Have you been here before?" asked the doorman.
"No..."
"You do realise this is a men only sauna...?"
I waved my Bear Pride badge at him. Honestly...

rock_bear. "What do you mean, you didn't discuss haemerroids and prosthetics with them???" Battered by a nasty case of telephonic Fierce Eyebrows, I beat a hasty retreat back into the shop and thrust the phone in to Dave's hand. "I'm being growled at...Talk to the bear!" And so two slightly confused Hairy Bikers got the full rock_bear experience. Without a side order of eyebrows.
