Spike

Not been much to write about on the blog recently,but I was cheered up by looking at Spike Milligan videos on Montana Mike's blog,I remember a tale told by one of Spike's pals that he once lay down in the doorway of an undertakers shop,folded his arms across his chest ,closed his eyes,and shouted, SHOP!
I remember visiting a restaurant when we were in Kansas City ,and during a conversation with the waiter,who was a theology student in his spare time,I recommended Spike's "The old Testament according to Terence Milligan",it would have been a treat to know if the lad read it or not,and would he have taken it seriously?
I suppose now I shall be looking at the whole lot of the Milligan videos,which in itself is not an unpleasant pastime,and if busy business tycoons in Kansas can find the time I am sure I can.
Sam the Pom has called time on the excess spending of Sandra and is now back to his old frugal self,he is I think modelling himself on me which is not a wise thing to do,as this frugality is frowned upon by those who are not able to see the justice of it,and can lead to satirical comments about wallets being moth breeding facilities.
Ciao

I really enjoyed the Spike Milligan books I read the other year and some of those Youtube clips are priceless.
