This doesn't happen very often. Friday I didn't earn a penny and today was the same. Sadly the fabric that is the veil of the temple of my life hath been rent in twain. The twin giant spectres of poverty and famine stalk me like two giant stalking things making me far from a "has been" and more like a "never was".

I think a walk in the woods and a swing on a rope would do wonders for you all!

Yes, a swing ON a rope, not FROM a rope. Stiff upper lip and all that. Things'll get better.

Couldn't work as today was "make a Québécoi laugh day".

Very important that this day is given full honours.

"I can't go out Skip. I need the work!"

"Vous parlez de la merde, mon amour. Vous n'avez pas besoin de l'argent ! "

No idea what that means. Something about "rope swings" I think.

I love me some Banksey!

FYI: As a public service: translation of:
"Vous parlez de la merde, mon amour. Vous n'avez pas besoin de l'argent ! "

"You speak SH*T, my love. You don't need money! "

Philip, will you work for food? I have some odd jobs I need done and will pay you with a hot meal.

Of course but it'll be food for two. Jazz likes Rich Tea biscuits and Kung Po chicken.

And airfare for 2 from Scotland to Illinois no doubt adds to the cost of the meals. Ninja

I shall steel myself and give this Voice Overist thing another year and if it doesn't work out then it's back to the day job.

When the oh-my-I'm-out-of-work event goes on for a couple of weeks, it's amazing what kind of home improvements you can get done, if you have any money saved, that is.

I'll let you take a couple of my gigs. I don't think the producers would notice. I sense they just have me around out of habit so perhaps you could at that touch I don't have.
