THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN IS FEELING VACANT

My new exercise regime seems to be paying off, and my blood sugar is about 6pts lower than it was a few days ago. I am determined to beat this, mainly because I don't want to suffer the fate of diabetics who don't beat it. So, onwards and upwards. We are about to receive a VIP visitor - Graham's mother, so we will all be on our best behaviour. Surprisingly, considering the fact that most of the winter was so mild, the snowdrops (which are a little late this year) are blooming merrily. But then again, it is so bloody cold at the moment, you wouldn't believe that a fortnight ago I was celebrating the advent of spring.
 
 
 
I found this Robert Wyatt/Jimi Hendrix demo online yesterday. Much to my chagrin, Rob Ayling knew all about it

*  The Gonzo Daily is a two way process. If you have any news or want to write for us, please contact me at  jon@eclipse.co.uk. If you are an artist and want to showcase your work, or even just say hello please write to me at gonzo@cfz.org.uk. Please copy, paste and spread the word about this magazine as widely as possible. We need people to read us in order to grow, and as soon as it is viable we shall be invading more traditional magaziney areas. Join in the fun, spread the word, and maybe if we all chant loud enough we CAN stop it raining. See you tomorrow...

*  The Gonzo Daily is - as the name implies - a daily online magazine (mostly) about artists connected to the Gonzo Multimedia group of companies. But it also has other stuff as and when the editor feels like it. The same team also do a weekly newsletter called - imaginatively - The Gonzo Weekly. Find out about it at this link:

* We should probably mention here, that some of our posts are links to things we have found on the internet that we think are of interest. We are not responsible for spelling or factual errors in other people's websites. Honest guv!

*  Jon Downes, the Editor of all these ventures (and several others) is an old hippy of 53 who - together with his orange cat (who is currently on sick leave in Staffordshire) puts it all together from a converted potato shed in a tumbledown cottage deep in rural Devon which he shares with various fish. He is ably assisted by his lovely wife Corinna, his bulldog/boxer Prudence, his elderly mother-in-law, and a motley collection of social malcontents. Plus.. did we mention the orange cat?
