1. I like this guy.
   Nighty nighty Mr Zen, sleep tight.

2. Sorry,Oz, but it had to be done. i’ll explain anon.

3. OK…..but it better be good anon. There is a snarl brewing.

   OZ

4. Oh.

   Night, Zen; sleep well.

5. Oz, it is – trust me.

6. Not to mention raised hackles and lots and lots of teeth.

   OZ

7. Oz.

   I trust Zen, I think you should too!

8. Oops, sorry, just an opinion.

9. By the way, should it be OZ or Oz?

   I’m now confused, but it’s not an unusual state these days.

10. Ah, you’re the first to notice, Araminta. It should be OZ for O Zangado as opposed to Oz for Oztralier. 🙂

11. sounds like we are in Dire straits. Excellent guitarist and group.

    Zen very deep.

    Night and don’t let the bed bugs bite.

12. O Zangado :

    Cool, I shall remember, OZ! xx

13. Mark Knopfler- what a man.

    Money for nothing and your kicks for free.

14. Chips for free, Nym; chips!

15. It’s “chicks for free”, ladies. Slang for girls, innit? 🙄

16. No, sorry you are completely wrong, Bearsy.

    My daughter had to listen to it a thousand times and she is adamant it is “chips”.

    Well she was only five at the time. 😉

17. It’s definitely ‘chips’ 🙂

18. Thank you, Boadicea.

    Of course it is! 🙂

19. Listen carefully!

20. Zen – Jowl is twitching, teeth appearing, not to memtion a tapping paw.

21. Araminta, Boadicea – Read the lyrics –

    Doh! 🙄

22. Fancy spoiling a good story with the facts! 🙂

23. What’s the problem, OZ? 😕

24. Yep, I was there!

    Brilliant. 🙂

    Doh!

    Tut, Bearsy.

    I was at Knebworth and I know exactly what they were singing!

26. Chips!! I always sing chips.

    Not entirely sure if OZ is just feeling a little peckish but count me in as Knopfler fan.

    Even if he hadn’t written the theme music for Local Hero. Even if he hadn’t written excellent Dire Straits stuff. Even if he hadn’t so sweetly, thanked his Dad for using every last penny to buy him his first electric guitar – and didn’t have the heart to mention it actually needed an amplifier….I would still love him utterly for an impromptu acoustic set during an interview at Hay on Wye which made me all teary with joy.

    I wish I’d been to Knebworth.

27. Bearsy – Start with Zen #2. For some reason he deleted a Mark Knopfler piece I posted and then seems to have toddled off to bed. Don’t worry, I’m not really angry – just intrigued, but don’t tell Zen, OK? 🙂

    OZ

28. Free chips? I want some, and before delivering custom kitchens and installing microwave ovens!

    OZ

29. Thanks OZ – my research shows he deleted “Sultans of Swing”. That’s a hanging offence! He better have an excellent reason, or The Bear will growl. 😎

30. It wasn’t just the album version, Bearsy, it was a MK live performance and the absolute mutt’s nuts. Be gentle with him nonetheless! 🙂

    OZ

31. Boadicea and I attended his concert at Bruce Stadium on the 10^th December 1991, which should have been billed as the first underwater performance – it rained the entire time. But nobody cared! 😆

32. Soggy chips, eh, Bearsy? 😉

33. Wet chicks with tight T-shirts, Araminta. 👿

34. Wjat’s wrong with free kicks?! 🙂

    Tee heee.

    (I’m sure Elton John sang, “Saturday night’s alright on Fridays”)
