Not going to LRL
June 25, 2007 4:39 pm openwengoIn spite of my best intentions, I won’t be going to Lug Radio Live this year to represent OpenWengo.
The official reason is that it’s only 2 weeks before the birth of our third child, and I can’t justify going away for a day & a half during a weekend that close to the “quick, call a taxi” date.
However the real reason is because I was afraid of all the abuse I would get from the LugRadio crowd – a taster of which I got from Stuart “Aq” Langridge upon hearing that I was cancelling:
Well then you are a useless Irish bastard and we are never going to speak to you again, you pig-holding arse.
Yes, that’s right, I am an arse that can hold a pig.
Thanks to Stuart for putting into my mind the image of two beautiful plump rosy bum-cheeks grabbing a poor defenseless squealing piglet. It’s enough to give you nightmares.

Have you ever seen a John Waters movie ? 🙂

That’ll learn ya to bail on us. 🙂
(Now you’ve gone public I’m sure you’re not coming. Shame. We’ll raise a glass to you in absentia!)

That’s right, pretend you didn’t mean it now.
Yeah – as much as I would have loved to come, there are other things I don’t want to miss that are more important.
