Has Madame witnessed a Horovitz hard-on? Or are you repeating yet another rumour?
My dear Duchess, has it occurred to you that you may have thrush?
Oh Great. Your blog has turned into a press release!
Mme Arcati is a press release for the specialest of projects, a scourge, a critique; a living art performance. Encore! I hear you cry.
I'd love to see a Horovitz hard-on. Could you arrange it Madame?
I'm not sure Blogger could cope with that, poppet.
If I have thrush then you are a walking herpes, 'Madame'.
I hope Steven Berkoff goes into one of his off-the-cuff raves. He is undoubtedly one of the quickest wits in England and puts many others (especially bores like S.Fry) to shame.
I soooo agree. Leave Fry-ups to the sclerotic.
I wonder if anyone's ever seen Madame's hard on.
Last I saw Mike H was at the Green Carnation headbanging to Lulu.
As a youth I used to go to Fran & Jay Landesman's dinner parties in Islington and Fran used to recite her works afterwards..for hours. Miles was very cute then.
Was Cosmo arrived upon Earth, gurgling?
Someone told me you'd stopped this blog ages ago so I'm very surprised to see you still going strong. Are you like No 1 in The Prisoner, observing the world on a huge screen, and with a huge balloon at your disposal to apprehend would-be escapees on the shore?
Yes.
If it's any consolation Madame, my blog has turned into one big Press Release - am going to start charging now!
Well, why not? We're all capitalists now.
