Had the same idea, too. But no chance.

But who cares - Karl can fight Daleks with a flower !

i don't think it's possible to read it, given the size of the original.
But i'd bet there's a "NUXX" on there :p

Dalek-fighting Karl - cool! I like his UW shirt, too!

Re: Underworldlive version 3.0 thread

Today's pic and story

"I visited Robert Motherwell, but he was out for the afternoon
Frank Stella was on the lips of an old grey geeza havin' his ears bent
by two fierce daughters of the 60's"

I Love Robert Motherwell and I love that Karl Loves Motherwell too.

The smell of hot Vimto, Camping in Criccieth, Canoeing at Black Rock Sands, Shopping in Porthmaddoc, Watching Logan's Run at the run-down cinema in Llandudno and dreaming of an imaginary future in Portmeirion.

As a teenager I was packed off each school holidays to stay with my musical uncle who'd 'retired from the biz' and moved to Snowdonia in the early 70s. Through him I met Cynthia Lennon and a very young Julian. He also introduced me to artists including Ed Povey whose work could be seen brightening up the walls of Bangor shops under that slate grey sky.

I had my fortune told by the hippies living in their teepees just outside Bethesda. She said "You'll do something in music or art and whilst you'll be happy, you'll never make any money" while a well-worn Solid Air LP played on the record player.

I remember this every time I visit Castell Deudraeth or The Village and wonder "was she simply making an educated guess?"

Thanks for the wednesday morning memories Mr H :)

Great memories!

I used to love Black Rock Sands, one of the only beaches I remember where you could drive a car straight on the beach!

Used to stay on Shell Island camp site where the sea covered the road at high tide and one of my fave parts of the trip was visiting Portmerion and I was too young to know of The Prisoner! I visited again recently and stay at Snowdonia what a quality part of the world!

Also Wales seems to have Castle's that are in amazing condition, well protected!

Re: Underworldlive version 3.0 thread
 

Its a small world, I stayed at Shell Island for a few days last year, and the year before (amazing place, has it's own microclimate - pity it's usually a very soggy one), and we've had a few day trips to Porthmaddoc too. I've moved out from the suburban sprawl of Romford, and I'm now living 160 miles away in Worcester with my girlfriend. I had no idea when I moved here, but stumbling around Wikipedia I notice that there's an Underworld connection here too, it's where Karl was born.

That picture of Pricey made me smile.

and

School of Seven Bells are good.

Re: Underworldlive version 3.0 thread
 

I agree on both points. An album I adore is Secret Machines' debut, the former band of Seven Bells' guitarist:)
