Don't think Smeple is worth that much

*grumble* I never get to the announcements in time to be on the first page...
But yeah, bye Sam 
We'll miss you. Probably.

I've never heard Sam Semple so I can't say how much he's worth. Perhaps there could be a sort of karaoke gadget behind the picture on the talking point which plays a different random sample when clicked. 
It would just be a specialisation of the other sort of random clickable advert suggested last year as a feature to go to pages and could be based on a user-defined list of URLs (like item list).

Good luck Sam, that leaves just one italic with decent dress-sense left

Now now Natalie, whatever strange POV DD's got, I actually meant that you're the last remaining italic I've ever seen look smart.

I was just checking. Knowing Kerr's dress sense it was a dubious call.

There is a song called Thursday...
Will see if my PC can let me listen to it...
All the best Sam...
We've never really spoke much but if you need some help with adapting your songs in French you know where to knock...
[Oooops that was a shameless hint there...

Anyway keep in touch

Sam Posted Jan 15, 2004
Just got back from a rather boozy farewell lunch. What can I say? Apart from 'hic'. Well, I really do appreciate all the comments and best wishes. They mean a lot to me. Lots of love to all of you. And I look forward to seeing you either or at one of my gigs or on site! All the best.

Jeez. Does no-one stay on here anymore, where did everybody go? I think this site is going down the U-bend slowly but certaintly.

I told you not to give him too much alky hall. You'll ruin him.

Don't fret, AJ - Sam's departure was announced as part of the 'restructure' last September and was taken into account in all the decisions we've made since.
Neither Natalie nor myself are going anywhere just yet.
Don't all cheer at once...
