Cheerio, Pardner!
I don't know what took me so long to get here, but I seem to have shown up at the right time!
I loved XTC back then with Black Sea, White Music, English Settlement, etc. Great music!!!

Hello Parrfers, nice to see you back. I haven't been around much myself after the, er, chocolate covered popular vocalist incident 
It's been pretty quiet all round really - Shea's been busy too so she hasn't been getting much h2g2 time either, and I haven't seen Bathers for ages
