CRYPTOZOOLOGY ONLINE: Still on the Track: THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN SINGS HAPPILY

The Gonzo Daily - Monday

www.gonzomultimedia.co.uk/about.html

I have a long and peculiar week ahead of me, so I am up and about a little earlier than usual. Thank you to all the people who said nice things about the Gonzo Weekly Chris Squire tribute edition that went out on Saturday. It is very gratifying to know that one's efforts are appreciated. I don't know what happened to our heatwave, but it looks depressingly Octobery outside.

By the way, I have had various people ask me whether they can camp in the CFZ grounds for the Weird Weekend this year. I am afraid not. Mother, who is - after all - 86, finds it all a bit of an upheaval for her, and so I am not having people camping here that she doesn't know personally so as not to freak her out too much. I am sorry about that.

* 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: www.gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.com/…/all-gonzo-news-wots-fit…

* 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 55 who - together with an infantile orange cat named after a song by Frank Zappa, and a small kitten totally coincidentally named after one of the Manson Family, purely because she squeaks, 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 infantile orange cat, and the adventurous kitten?
