The British Virgin Islands

06/08/2001

After 18 months on this stage of the tour the band has been asked to leave the British Virgin Island by request of the high consulate. The reasons we were given were that its is illegal to have intimate relations with a jar of kidneys. Upon hearing this our resident kidney lover Lord Chunkington Smyth Farquas Hufford. Offered his resignation this was not accepted. To cheer the old boy up we bought him a new plastic liver as his dickey glass one is beyond repair 

Guyana

Tragic news. Percussionist, I Bodgeit has been admitted to hospital with severely burned testicles. The incident occurred when Ira was getting into the party mood with the locals as it is St Bulbous day the patron saint of Exploding Trousers. Ira grabbed a pair of the said trousers and thrust them on ( to show that us Brit's are scared of nothing) when due to some faulty stitching the things blew up. Ira was rushed to hospital with a severely singed pubic region

The band is pleased to announce the procurement of a new librarian. Ivana Crapalova. She joins up from the Moscow Sewage band. After many years of service with them she decided she had had enough of living in the pipe at the back of the band room and needed a change of scenery. She will join us in Greenland and you will be pleased to know she will live in the lap of luxury from now on. In the water key of Lord Huffords Bass.

Well at last after weeks of traveling we have finally made it. The band have arrived in the Greenland capital Nuuk. Along the way we have picked up our new resident conductor Mr. James. More news soon

06/10/2001



Lord Hufford here, little bit of gossip for you, whilst in a bar in Nuuk, getting absolutely slaughtered, with new boy James, well I say slaughtered more like Nuuked (get it fnar, fnar). James confessed to me that he is in fact the love child of Von Genchler and that Librarian of ours who is seeking succor in my water key.

Turns out that Ivana Craplova is not her real name, it is Ivhada Craplova and Jamesie is the result. You can see the resemblance as both Von Genchler and Jamesie wear white jackets. 

Apparently it turns out the Von Genchler whilst on tour with the Berlin Toilet Boys, flushed with a successful concert at Lenin's Tomb, he went on a vodka drinking spree, which lasted for 3 weeks and a day. On week 2 they ran out of vodka so he turned to a lethal cocktail called Lenin's Hair Piece. This consists of 3 parts Gin one part Potchin five parts Toilet Duck and to top it all of one part Embalming Fluid. He subsequently fell into a coma and the rest is as they say history. Of course our illustrious leader is not aware of this, and I'm afraid it may compromise his position. Forgetting about the couple of hundred positions that he took her in. ( Ivhada's Brag). 

Now of course I'm a little concerned that as the 'lady' concerned is living I'm my water key she is close to my substantial trouser snake and I am concerned that she may trap me in a similar way. Perhaps we could find alternative accommodation for her inside Marcus's Timps. I could spit in there first so she feels at home. 

More on this story as it breaks……. 

Lord Hufford News at Ten Nuuk Greenland. 

15/11/2001

Well after the scandal that has rocked the band. The past few weeks have been rather long and tense. Nearly as tense as Lord Huffords man portion with Crapalova near it. But we can announce that she has move out of Lord Chunks water key and has taken up residence in one of the smaller Timps. Much to the delight of the percussionists who get a quick nosh whilst banging on their tight skins.
MMM nice

Well Christmas is fast approaching and the band are on the move again. This time they are taking in the delights of Stinking Hole in Queensland Austrailia. A chance for the band to sun themselves in the heat of the Outback. We are going to be giving the local Petrol Swilling Abbo natives several concerts which will  coincide with the Umbaga Wongla Nakka festivals. A feast which runs at this time of year celebrating the coming of the Great Kerosene Swilling God Nakka. Should be a good time. After drinking Several hundred Gallons of Lenin's Hair Piece, aviation fuel seems a safer bet.

Greeting and Merry Xmas from Austrailia. Well its good news for the band was we gain an early Christmas present. After months of Searching we have finally managed to get a new Horn section. Although we have yet to hear them play they cannot be any worse than three half eaten rotting corpses. But isnt the most horn section. More to Follow.
