My stories

The Bulldog Bites

By ralph on Tue, 28 Mar 2006

The first punk band that I ever saw was called 'The Vandals'. I was fifteen years old and they played my local youth club in Basildon. A very young and very abrasive Alison Moyet fronted them then. I thought that it was a great gig. I jumped up and down until I got shin splints. Punk eh? It made monkeys of us all. Alison ended up singing in the West End hit 'Chicago' and I ended up working for Enfield Council. The only anarchy I cause now is in my kitchen.

Coffee and Eggs

By ralph on Sat, 25 Mar 2006

Hey baby, Lets meet for breakfast. In the sunshine. Put it all to bed. For this last time. I'll buy you coffee and eggs. You can smoke my fags. For the first time. Bring my bags. I have a joke to tell.

The Bulldog Bites

By ralph on Wed, 15 Mar 2006

The Bulldog Bites It was my 42nd birthday last week. It's a good age I think. I'm still young and feisty enough to consider world domination, but mature enough to realise that it will never happen. Anyway, in my mind, I'll always be 25 and that's that.

Appetite

By ralph on Sat, 11 Mar 2006

So it's just the pills and me. Guy Clarke, Prefab Sprout. Silk Cut. The rain scratching windows, of a Saturday night. I could pick up the phone. Talk to a friend. In LA. Basildon. Wakefield.
