… or very much like a member of the super-group by the same name.
Look on the bright side NP, it could be worse … you could look like Bruce Willis!
And no need to thank me, this is all Marcus’ handiwork … I am just the ‘medium’. [You can tell Marcus is on the way ‘back’ can’t you. I bet you’re so pleased!]
I almost feel dodgy doing this – but I know you can take it, you’re a hard Northern bastard [not to mention a top bloke] and besides, we’re trying to get Ben & Jerry’s to make your ‘Northern Tea’ flavoured Ice Cream so I am sure you’ll forgive me.
[Even though it’s Marcus’ fault as usual. He’s probably behind the Colgate thing too, ha!]
I am DEFINITELY going now … so see you Friday …

I am sorry NP … really, really sorry!
Comment by Rob May 30, 2007 @ 8:06 pmNo you’re not. Stop fucking about. You love it.
Comment by Marcus May 30, 2007 @ 8:08 pmI’ve sent NP a mail to tell him we’ve been naughty boys. Should hopefully be popping by soon.
Comment by Marcus May 30, 2007 @ 8:17 pmdid you guys forget that NP’s you-know-who has been you-know-what? Is taking the piss out of him really a good way to show how much you love him?
Comment by lauren May 30, 2007 @ 9:04 pmHang on!
Comment by Rob Mortimer May 30, 2007 @ 9:27 pmIt was me who came up with the Yorkshire Tea flavour B+J idea!!
You’re hardest on the one’s you love – I hope.
Marcus I salute you for your ingenuity.
Rob. I salute for you for doing something else at home instead of the work you’re supposed to be doing. Even better, you’ve tried to dodge responsibilty, in the full knowledge I am indeed a hard Northern Bastard.
Comment by NP May 30, 2007 @ 9:44 pmQueen, anything but Queen…
And can it Mortimer, I need the moral fortitude.
I love you like a brother NP. It’s just you’re:
a killer queen
Comment by Marcus May 30, 2007 @ 9:53 pmGunpowder, gelatine
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime
I don’t know any Queen songs.
Comment by NP May 30, 2007 @ 9:58 pmYes you do.
Comment by Marcus May 30, 2007 @ 10:05 pmHow did you know it was Queen then??
Comment by Rob Mortimer May 30, 2007 @ 10:12 pm😉
NP’s gone ga-ga … radio ga-ga.
And if it was you Mr M who came up with Northern Tea B&J – you’ll be happy to know the actual recipie that is being tested next week is Northern Tea with cream and McVittie’s Digestive clusters. And if they do it, I will get you a years supply – unless we’ve eaten it all previously.

“Yorkshire tea was Rob’s idea, told him it was bollocks”
😀
Yay!
Comment by Rob Mortimer May 30, 2007 @ 10:30 pmWell done Mr M … you’ve made quite the impact today!
Have a good one and speak soon,
R
[PS: You don’t think NP is pissed do you?]
Comment by Rob May 30, 2007 @ 10:33 pmI’ll give him a tub or two, so i’m sure he’ll come round 😀
Busy day I know! Got to write my presentation up now…
Comment by Rob Mortimer May 30, 2007 @ 10:35 pmOOOOOhhhhhhh good luck my son [not that you’ll need it] … just remember to make it clear, logical, interesting and a teensy bit dangerous/exciting.
[Think of it like a story – beginning, middle, end, conclusion and you’ll be tops. Sorry if I am teaching Granny to suck eggs, I know you know how to do these things with your eyes closed]
Speak soon …
Comment by Rob May 30, 2007 @ 10:40 pmHaha thanks!
Comment by Rob Mortimer May 30, 2007 @ 10:43 pmI have done them before, just not for a while…and its rather an important one!!
Lauren … the fact we are doing this to NP shows we actually care.
Alot.
It’s a bloke thing … an English bloke thing … and no, I am not joking, it’s the make-up of our male-bonding-culture.
Yes, we’re a weird bunch – by that I mean men and English people, ha!
Comment by Rob May 30, 2007 @ 11:42 pmit’s the australian way too, rob. believe me, i can smell my own kind, but sometimes it’s not always received as well as it’s made out. i can see, however, that NP
a) has a sense of humour and understands the jest,
b) is a hard, hard northern bastard
c) doesn’t give a fuck and has better things to get mad/upset about
d) all of the above.
enjoy your holiday tomorrow/today 🙂
Comment by lauren May 31, 2007 @ 6:22 amAfter the Harry Potter incident I deserve everything I get. And well played Famous Rob.
Comment by NP May 31, 2007 @ 3:06 pmI’m a Leeds fan, it takes a lot to get to me. And my hair actually did look like that, glad it’s all gone.
Late to this one. But I think it has made my morning.
Rob M – whatever the presentation is for, I wish you luck. I’ve got a vague idea.
