'Clairwil, that’s a fucking travesty. Let’s publish our own book.' -Katy Newton

Hello,
As you may be aware I recently mentioned that a book of blog entries was being published in aid of Comic Relief. Well it has now been published and can be had for ready money. There's an impressive line up even though I was cruelly rejected.

Still not one to sulk for more than five hours and having been a bit moist round the eyes at the wallet opening sad story bits of this evening's Comic Relief broadcast. I urge you all to buy the book. It was the clip about the mosquito nets that did me in. I have a mosquito net at home purchased for £30 from 'The Pier'. I couldn't find a beam in the ceiling to fix it to, chucked it to the back of the wardrobe and forgot about it. I think I might be experiencing a bit of the liberal guilt! There's a first time for everything. That people are dying for want of something I paid stupid money for and can't be bothered to take to the charity shop doesn't sit well with me. I'm quite sure some clever clogs will be able to explain that the two things have nothing to do with each other and I'm quite sure they're right. Still there's no harm in realising how lucky you are from time to time.

Oh thank the Lord! It's Comic Relief as usual. They're now playing dreadful music over footage of distressed and desperate people. I can go back to being cynical.

I have a small plan to copy the book idea for a top cause. I shall keep you posted. Cheerio

I am not doing anything that will give Lenny Henry a chance to revive his piss-poor showbiz career.

Now now, don't be mean about Lenny Henry. He was very nice to Mr Clairwil a while back and as such I have forgiven Lenny all his sins.

"He was very nice to Mr Clairwil"

Please expand upon that statement.

Yet another shaggy blog story reject? We're fast outnumbering those who got in.

Although I guess that was the guy-with-no-taste's problem in the first place.
