THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN IN THE SHRUBBERY AGAIN

So July is upon us, and it has been quite an interesting July so far. Prudence and I are alone at the CFZ today. It is Graham's day off, and Corinna has taken mother into Bideford. Pru and I are enjoying the peace and quiet. No news yet from Richard in Sumatra but - unless something amazing happens - I am not really expecting any yet. Carl Marshall has obtained what appears to be a genuine 19th Century British Marten from Dorset. But is it martes or foina? That is the big question. I am agog with anticipation, but in the meantime am still reeling from The Rolling Stones' mighty performance at Glastonbury, and am playing the new albums from Judy Dyble and Holland's Mr Averell to compensate.

*  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: http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.com/2012/11/all-gonzo-news-wots-fit-to-print.html

 

* 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) and two very small kittens (one of whom is also orange) puts it all together from a converted potato shed in a tumbledown cottage deep in rural Devon which he shares with various fish, and sometimes a small Indian frog. 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?
