    I think the picture that Lake posted of himself last Christmas was genuine

    Is there really any need for all of this? :D

    When Nathan mentioned you briefly last week he said that you must be in your 80s judging by your picture. I said it was very unlikely that it was you, he said he thought it was. I’ve worded my post so that you could give him the answer to this v.funny jape, which you’ve done. Cheers.

    If he is that age it would go some way to explaining why he gets so grouchy :) not too long before someone will be getting paid £6.31 an hour to wipe his bum :(

    I assumed he was joking in that thread, Nathan?

    Anyway, I’ve learnt a bit about EWG on google;

    Ephraim Gadsby
    Bertram Wilberforce "Bertie" Wooster is a recurring fictional character in the Jeeves novels of British author P. G. Wodehouse. An English gentleman, one of the "idle rich" and a member of the Drones Club, he appears alongside his valet, Jeeves, whose genius manages to extricate Bertie or one of his friends from numerous awkward situations.
    As the first-person narrator of ten novels and over 30 short stories, Bertie ranks as one of the most vivid comic creations in popular literature. Bertie’s middle name, "Wilberforce", is the doing of his father, who won money on a horse named Wilberforce in the Grand National the day before Bertie was born and insisted on Bertie carrying that name (mentioned in Much Obliged, Jeeves).

    This is an excerpt from the article Ephraim Gadsby from the Wikipedia free encyclopedia. A list of authors is available at Wikipedia.

    That’s the one, that guy must be older than Lake :)

    Maybe Drone can give us the definitive answer.

    I’m really bad at taking photos but this one takes the biscuit, managed to cut Nathan’s head right off. Still, every cloud…

    Surely that picture that was put up some time ago wasn’t really Drone, was it? The guy would be in his 80s and I thought Droney was about my age?

    Hey!

    I’ll have you know that "Horsey" is my magnum opus.

    It was my lifelong ambition to use alliteration heavy prose to create a perfectly structured haiku which encapsulated the contrast between searing fierceness of god’s grandest creature and man’s existential angst. The inner conflict that consumes all horse racing fans.

    For nights, I anxiously laid awake asking myself "What rhymes with horsey?""How will it fit the voyage of the allegory?""Gorsey? Divorcee? Centrifugal forcey?". A real nightmare. But as I was dreaming, I dreamed of a horse and suddenly, I awoke from the horror. EUREKA! I cried as I scurried through the screwed up pieces of paper and countless volumes of inspirational texts desperately searching for a pen… a pencil…ANYTHING that I could use to complete my work before it faded into dust like the empire of Ozymandias etc etc etc

    WALOFS that is Simon, or Sejad, or whatever character you’re playing today. You sick puppy.

    I saw Men At Work when they and The Beat supported Bowie on his Serious Moonlight Tour ’83 Milton Keynes Bowl. A glorious sunny day that doesn’t seem so long ago…

    I would say that I have the T – Shirt, but sold it on eBay last week as there’s no chance that it will ever fit me again :( and I’m having a bit of a clear out at the moment.
