Sometimes I wonder what colour the sky is in his world then notice I must be very bored.

Yet another reason to have a Eurovision thread over here. Annoyingly the chatroom appeared to fail, unless we just set up an IRC room and we find some java app thing for those without mirc.

I think the chatroom is only for the "big night" when BBC One does it, not whatever was on BBC Three. And I've split Tumbles mumbles.. (ooo I like that...) because they're pointless and annoy me.

Yes, I have.
I wanted Beepy for the Beep Chubby Controversy but Asa said somebody had taken it, so I had Beep instead!

I think he can rest well asured that it is his character to which we object, not his name.

So, a minor controversy which was so small to not even be a mild disagreement got beep to call himself beep, even though nobody uses it in any way as a gesture of kindness or even respect?

And also managed to shoehorn a term into an actual obit knowing that it's so hackneyed that it's actually become something of a clichéd joke? Seems the mundane and pathetically tiresome just happen to get moreso.

It's not just dull, it's totally offensive to those who were personal friends of Alan.
