The Gonzo Daily - Wednesday
http://www.gonzomultimedia.co.uk/about.html
As you may have gathered, yesterday was not the most enjoyable of days thanks to the duplicity of a man with whom I have had the misfortune of having to deal. However, enough of that. I prefer to concentrate on the more positive aspects of my life. As you will be aware Richard Freeman and Mike Williams are presently hunting for thylacines in the wilds of Tasmania. Today he wrote to me:
"In Tasmania, have visited some remote areas. The places we visited in 2014 have been burned out by forest fires. We are now in Central Tasmania. Have spoken to the father of a witness who saw the Tasmanian wolf last year. A good, long, close up sighting. Have met the legendary Thylacine research Col Bailey. Nothing on game cams yet. Mike and I have identified what might be a area of extreme interest for the next trip but its remoteness would make it very hard to get to."

SPECIAL NOTICE: If you, too, want to unleash the power of your inner rock journalist, and want to join a rapidly growing band of likewise minded weirdos please email me at jon@eclipse.co.uk The more the merrier really.
* 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.co.uk
* 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 56 who - together with an infantile orange cat named after a song by Frank Zappa, and two small kittens, one 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. 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 kittens?
