Scrambled ostrich eggs an' al' 'thon.



Okay, so here are some things that have been in my head of late.

1) Creating a version of the Diet Coke ad – the ‘I don’t want you to be no slave’ one – where the women are replaced by nuns and the guy is replaced by Dev. The end of the song should be changed from ‘I just wanna make love to you’ to ‘I just wanna vote for you’, and             rather than stripping off, Dev should just take his hat and coat off. I imagine some harvest scene, or turf-cutting being the background. Dev should wipe the perspiration from his brow with a ballot paper.

2) Something to do with Chris de Burgh leading the Norman invasion of Ireland in 1169. I’m thinking lots of lady in red. Perhaps the lady in red could be Aoife MacMurrough.

3ish) This got me thinking – my mind wonders – about presenting WWI as the Eurovision Song Contest. People always bitch about ‘political’ voting in the show, which could be a fun way of presenting the alliance system in 1914. Then everything went to shit. 

Archie Duke style. 


These are just some random ideas that I’ve been mulling over. They need work. Roll on the establishment!

  1. Good man James, these were those ridiculous ides that came out of chats recently. Note what I have written to you in a letter dated today, 21 Aug 2014. I have already pretty much forgotten what I have written but you will soon have the manuscript I think it's amusing. It's Charlie-cakes II related. How unimaginable.
