Peter Blake once signed 10,000 limited edition prints included in his 1990's retrospective catalogue at the the Tate. I actually wrote to him as I suspected they were all faked in some way and he wrote back to assure me he'd actually sat down and signed them over a number of weeks. I bet he had repetitive strain syndrome after wards!<BR/><BR/>How is Sylvia these days Jonathan- we hardly ever hear from her?Wastedpapiershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06833050707322694789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7643791.post-76351847693678283492007-09-12T01:02:00.000+01:002007-09-12T01:02:00.000+01:00I went to see Michael Palin the other night...Read...I went to see Michael Palin the other night...<BR/>Reading from his diaries (1969-1979. the Python Years)<BR/>Quite clever and a good salesman, as I was convinced to buy the book... 600 pages!!!<BR/>As I was in line to get it autographed I was asked whose name I'd like in it (I suppose they meant who to dedicate it to)... I responded that I was hoping that he'd sign it "Michael Palin".<BR/>When I finally got up to the signing table (I was in line longer than he'd read) I asked if the signing wasn't tedious. He told me that he never got tired of writing his own name. I asked if his check book was handy... and was shuffled along...Jonathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07929803175840891199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7643791.post-73952908625388002902007-09-11T16:40:00.000+01:002007-09-11T16:40:00.000+01:00hickory dickory darn and mouse ran up me armyes, I...hickory dickory darn and mouse ran up me arm<BR/><BR/>yes, I'm very impatient.

Good luck with all that packing. I can sympathise with the mail art problem. <BR/>Ive cut back on mine now and so hardly get any which is a shame but our coal shed is full to the ceiling! Nutty slack!<BR/><BR/>Awaiting your Norwegian poems with keen anticipation!<BR/><BR/>It seems the two older Chuckle Brothers now go under the name of the Patton Brothers and still work with the Chuckles from time to time but mostly do panto.<BR/><BR/>I just sent you a "C" comp which hope you have by now. The others did not respond so have made a new list of others who might. Its too good an idea to flounder. Once we've worked our way through the alphabet we can start on themes like "fish" and "animals" ( probably lump the fish in with the animals!)<BR/><BR/>Fish are a good source of brain food as is the Ginkyo tree and Omega 3. I've just been reading about it.Wastedpapiershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06833050707322694789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7643791.post-63985918529269706582007-09-10T22:48:00.000+01:002007-09-10T22:48:00.000+01:00PS Just been playing the B compilation.

So I'm busy packing everything into boxes.<BR/><BR/>Including lots of boxes of collage stuff and old mailart stuff which we hope to be reunited with in two years time when we move again to France.<BR/><BR/>I wonder too.

How was Norway?<BR/>I always though there was only two Chuckle Bros. but in one clip from ages ago it seems ( leeds city varieties? ) they had four brothers !
