I'll try and get to Zardoz, not sure about the cake though.
I'd rather go to that Wetherspoons pub nearby afterwards.

Or on the Island with John Locke, where they've been for years. It could be worse. It could be Ben Linus

Benjamin Linus is sort of a personal role model for me.

I haven't seen a single episode of "Lost". But, having looked him up, I do recall the chap who plays John Locke from a film called The Stepfather.
Anyway... Wetherspoons or ... what?
The last time (1989) someone suggested to me "cake" was better than booze was in Holland. That ended in a 24 hour drug-crazed bad trip---courtesy of the Baloo Bar, darkest Amsterdam ...

Mark, if anyone tries any funny business, we'll just have to splosh our way out.
Assuming i make it at all (won't know for sure til Sat night but it's looking OK), Wetherspoons is a distinct possibility, sporadic detours to nearest Off-Licence a stone banker.

Holland On Sea can be a scarier prospect... Wetherspoons versus cake: well, i'm on pills at the moment so can't drink, but then again also on a diet so cake is not a good idea. as usual, i shallallow myself to be swayed by dem and blame him when mrs ph takes me to task later (which she will anyway over yet MORE dodgy paperbacks which she'll sneak a look at when she thinks i'm not looking).
Justin definitely coming?

Benjamin Linus is sort of a personal role model for me. My alter ego is, of course, Desmond. There is something very 'Pulp Horror' about the whole LOST series, in an adventure/weird sense, with its traditional production methods etc. Meanwhile, its spontaneously retrocausal plot is complex and layered. Nb: Hume and Locke (Desmond and John respectively)

Wonder if that fellow who claimed to be you will show up again? honest, i swear i've seen him hanging around Watney Market in the interim! just had confirmation from Milan of interzone@TYPE that he'll be there.

The defining moment of the day for me was the following exchange between Johnny Mains and Kev Demant.
Kev congratulating Johnny on the huge success of the Pan re-launch and the slight paunch a comfortable looking Mr Mains was sporting. Kev to JM, "Look at that, that's the gut of success that is!"
Mr Mains responding by making Kev lift up his shirt to display the stomach of a racing snake. "Look at that, that's the gut of failure that is!"
