Mr Rob

In my life, why do I give valuable time to people who don't care if I live or die?

About Me

I AM NOT HERE ANYMORE. I'VE GONE TO FACEBOOK. I'M IN THE MANCHESTER NETWORK. FIND ME...

My Interests

Suits. Can't beat a fine suit. Beer and/or gin and sleeping on a floor. Politics. Debate. The fortunes of Blackpool FC. Playing footy on a Wednesday in Winter. Beer Wednesday in Summer. Main Event Fridays. Spending time with my girlfriend (aaahhh). Pretending to be Doctor Who.

I'd like to meet:

Trevor Eve. To ask him if he's my real dad.
Richey Edwards. Just to find out where he's been.
Derren Brown. To learn some fancy tricks and part large sums of money from unsuspecting people.
James Dean Bradfield. For a pint and a chat.
Morrissey. For a pint, a chat, and to force him to eat a bacon barm.
David Tennant. He nicked my TARDIS, and I want it back.

THIS IS A TERRORIST THREAT.

Back from Glasto

I am back from Glasto in one muddy piece. Slight hangover, general physical decay and loss of weight. A bloody good time was had by myself. Eavis, however, has let too many people in again. EAVIS OUT!...

Send Away the Tigers

Rob's two word review:- Surprisingly good. There's life in them old Manics yet! Seeing them in Preston on Sunday. Potentially immense.
