    You don't have a doctor man, you have a vet. And I've seen your file and it just says 'Completely mad, can't do a thing with him.'

    I can get anyone's records for a small fee, PM me for details. You'll be amazed.

    Absolutely. We grow our own as much as possible but I find myself eating them like sweets. If everyone that can grow their own stuff did, it might send a message.

    If you can get anyone's Frank Zappa records for a small fee, I'd be interested. I'd particularly like a copy of 'You Are What You Is'.

    Well, your penchant for 'eating odd-shaped fruits' is well known, and why last time you ending up being arrested.

    Yes you remember rightly. And the texture was rather like five day old Morrisons apples. I found a good smearing of barbeque sauce helped (Heinz of course, I'm not a perv).

    Got some Zappa I would let go, not that one though. What's that awful Synclavier one called? You can have that. Only been played once.

    To be honest, my Zappa records just don't get played anymore, apart from 'Hot 'Rats' and 'Overnite Sensation'. And my steadfast refusal to buy any other format but vinyl for Zappa would make attempting to complete his discography all but impossible.

    If I only buy one more Zappa record, YAWYI would be it. I haven't heard it in years. Particular favourites were 'Dumb All Over' and the 'Suicide Chump' part.

    If you've never seen it before, 'Overnite Sensation' and 'Apostrophe' were covered in a 'Classic Albums' series. Contributions from Ruth Underwood and Billy Bob Thornton amongst others, definitely worth a watch.
