...outside David Blaine's perspex box, can Paul McCartney now possibly be removed from your list of enemies and become a proud member of your esteemed organisation?

OK, I have to admit that was an impressive bit of bad temper from Macca, and he's probably going to get grumpier with a new baby keeping him awake at night. I have removed him from the Enemies of P.U.D.D.I.N.G. list.
However, if he wants to join P.U.D.D.I.N.G. then he can open a h2g2 account and post his request like anyone else. No ing special treatment for global megastars here! Who do they think they are? Eh? Eh?

I am very pleased to see that justice has been done here and that he has been removed from your enemies list. I understand your reasons for not affiliating him with the club immediately but I feel confident that Macca will put in his own application.

Of course, if he does continue to be grumpy, then Macca may yet make it to the Heroes Of P.U.D.D.I.N.G. list, as a formerly cheery chappie who's recognised the error of his ways. We'll see.

News of this 'scra[' failed to reach me whilst I was away could someone be so kind as to tell me more or point me in the right direction?

I think that would be brilliant - and as observed earlier in this thread, sleepless nights will make him even more grumpy now: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/showbiz/3226379.stm

Reading that I think that Stella should be inducted into the society, what with losing half or more of her inheritance to, shall we say, 'a miner of precious metals'.

That's a point. Didn't she go around wearing a t-shirt that said "About f***ing time" when Sir Paul got his knighthood? In a wacky, thumbs-aloft kind of way of course.

Yeah Stella is Queen of Grumpiness. She also rows with people in restaurants who aren't eating carrots. Let her in!

OK, by public demand, Sir Paul and Stella have joined the Heroes of PUDDING.
EV - of course you don't have to start being grumpy in any particular way. Just look through the rest of the Heroes list! There you can find comical grumpiness, melodic grumpiness, noisy grumpiness, (un)sporting grumpiness - a whole wide of grumpiness! There are a thousand roads to the holy grail of grumpiness, all of them equally valid. Whatever keeps that sickly smile off your face, go for it!
GD - , that's a mean-minded description of Heather Mills McCartney! And her a disabled nursing mum too! That's vicious, cynical, nasty and... perfectly PUDDING, in fact! That's the spirit!

I've just thought of another reason why Sir Paul should be a Hero of PUDDING - remember the strop he threw a while back when he decided half those Lennon/McCartney compositions should actually be McCartney/Lennon compositions? Go on, Macca, you tell the late bespectacled peace campaigner! And his interfering screechy-voiced widow!
Was that grumpy enough?

I am SO pleased Stella and Sir Paul have made it! Wahey!
Thanks so much for the ongoing research in the field of chirpy ex-Beatle wacky thumbs aloft grumpiness.
I think he got a bit grumpy with Michael Jackson over his publishing rights too...

Dr E Vibenstein (You know it is, it really is.) Posted Oct 30, 2003
Oh yes, that's right, I remember! The story went something like this:
"Michael, me old mate," said wacky thumbs-aloft Macca, "you want to get into music publishing, that's where the real money is."
"Really?" replies the plastic-faced reality tourist. "I'll do that then, cheers mate." (I'm paraphrasing here, obviously.)
Next thing wacky thumbs-aloft Macca knows, Jacko has gone out and bought the publishing rights to 99% of the Beatles' back catalogue.

The Beatle songwriting credit row and the David Blaine photographer punch-up are now both incorporated in a long footnote explaining Sir Paul's presence on the Heroes list. It occured to me that some people might just possibly think he didn't belong alongside Nick Cave and Leonard Cohen in the list of music's darker characters.
