BREAKING NEWS

A 39 year old man dressed as a giant currant has been arrested in Cheltenham tonight and charged with possession and intent to supply a Class A substance.

It is believed he was attempting to put a bucket of magic mushrooms into the away changing room at The Cardboard Box Stadium an hour before the kick off of today's match between Mince Pie Town and Reindeer Wanderer's.

Last season the Wanderer's goalkeeper Tarandu Svalbard failed a drugs test after being removed from the pitch against the Inflatable Polar Bears when he sunk to his knees pre match and rolled around in the penalty area holding up the kick off by 15 minutes.

The Wanderer's Head Coach Boreal Woodland had used sign language to suggest that Svalbard had been spiked and a season's ban was lifted on the Reindeer's keeper.

Meanwhile, Wanderer's have signed Clover Hooves Granti Articus after the out of contract Reindeer impressed in training during a recent trial.

MINCE PIE TOWN
V REINDEER WANDERERS

BOXING DAY 12.30 GMT

The Barcodes will be hosting Reindeer Wanderers for today's lunchtime kick off at the Cardboard Box Stadium.

Midfield holding player Kamchatkan is a doubt for the visitors with a swollen hoof.

Prancer and Dasher are the threats up front for Wanderers and will be keen to add to their impressive goal talley ( 9 and 7 goals respectively ).

Town have injury concerns of their own with K. Sultana suffering a freak injury on the training ground and may have to be content with a place on the bench.

Cornflower and Lemon - Peel - Citric are available for Town after serving three match suspensions.

With the transfer window approaching there will be considerable interest in Wanderers central defender Terandus Fennicus who has been outstanding again for the Reindeer this season.

With several hundred Wanderers fans seen galloping towards the Cardboard Box Stadium overnight a good Bank Holiday crowd is expected.

MATCH RESULT AND REPORT

INFLATABLE POLAR BEARS 0
GHOSTS OF CHRISTMAS FUTURE 1

The Ghosts snatched a late victory at Holly Bush Park with a scrambled effort in the second minute of injury time after a pulsating match that had the crowd enthralled throughout.

Despite dominating the first half the INFLATABLES were unable to make their superiority count.

Big White went close for the home side with a glancing header that skimmed the post on twenty minutes, moments later he forced a save from the Ghost's keeper with a snap shot from the edge of the box.

Little was seen from the Ghost attack in the opening half but they bought on Midnight Ghost after the break and he was soon causing problems for the INFLATABLES defenders.

It was a late effort from 2am Ghost that secured the sprouts for the visitors and had the away following flying in circles 500 feet above the pitch.

INFLATABLES Head Coach Long Tail - White said he was proud of his team who were really pumped up for the encounter and gave everything he could have asked.

STARMER LEGO HEADS 0

More misery for the Lego Heads as they slumped to their 5th consecutive defeat at the hooves of the rampant Moose and Elk side who were two nil ahead inside the first twenty minutes with White Tail firing in from 35 legs on nine minutes and tapping home a rebound on 18 minutes to put the Rovers in total command.

The Lego Heads made five changes at half time but were unable break down the Rovers rearguard and suffered a further set back with their supremo K. Lego heading past his own goalkeeper on 84 minutes.

Urban Werewolf draft continued.

Contains dark imagery and scenes.

From seamstress
To waitress
Princess and mistress
I've seen the sights

Now Goddess

Your word not mine

Of my time you said

From a life of duress
I dress to impress
For that l am blessed

I am cast as
URBAN WEREWOLF
In this punk opera
Starring in an alleyway
Near you anytime soon

You may have seen me
On an up escalator
On a railway station
Concourse
Or going down
Behind the scenes

My allure
Has them entranced
Male
Female
Inbetweeners
They ask me to dance

On entering my airspace
Or headspace
They are blown away
By my grace

Your words not mine

You have made me
What l have become
A Timothy Leary
Experiment
Running through these
Shadow veins
Don't ask me to explain

Dressed as
URBAN WEREWOLF
I release a SHRIEK
In the night
Such is my plight
Something ignites
From the inner most
Depths of my being

I am neuronaut
Harvard psilocybin
Project Number
Two Six Six
Diethylamide
Trans humanisation

Voices in my head
Create this footprint
Through crop circles
Past satanic messages
Etched in frosted windscreens
Into the Church of Albion
To destroy the vermin
That lurks behind
The Cross

Am l responsible
For my murderous actions?

Now that is the question

Being the subject
Of mind control
Should exonerate me

They call it
Diminished responsibility

But l still get
THE THRILL of THE KILL

We used to engage in a technique called 'Eye Scan' in the advertising industry.

Example. Someone would sit at a flat table or desk and be presented with a tabloid newspaper.

We would then have a film camera set up in front of them to monitor where the eye was led to regarding headlines, pictures, text and advertising as they turned the pages.

This technique resulted in Page 3 being on the right of a DPS ( double page spread ) as a key target eye scan area for glam models to be placed.

I suppose one could argue that the eye would find them on the base of the left hand page but l don't recall us discussing that.

Sounds quite simple, and this was where we were at in the early eighties.

There would be a varied audience for this practice and they were paid similar rates to those who took place in some market research programmes.

History now.

Today we monitored facial expression on two students reading the first two sections of 'Urban Werewolf'. They looked perplexed.

Thought they might.

I have had an AI lyrics to music induction.

It's quite a trip. It is moving forward as a fast pace.

What occured to me is that you can make AI demo's from the melody patterns that are contained in the structure of the lines, words and syllables.

Lyrics don't usually have much value on their own but AI may change this.

We did a short piece with a female vocalist in English and the verses in French. Even the first two attempts sounded ok.

You can select tempo, instruments, mood etc.

TV and radio jingles are simple - and quite catchy.

🙂🙂

'URBAN WEREWOLF'

Draft continued -

Peter sat
Atop a rainbow
Looked below
Through traffic flow
Eyed Professor RO
At the side of the road
Peter stepped
Onto a blood painted cloud
Shouted out aloud
'B A L A C H A D H A'
The Professor looked up
Waved an empty coffee cup
Meanwhile
Over in Whitechapel
A Dirty Blonde
Was hanging out
By the Cash Machine
Looking mean
She's gone all goth
Blackened eyes
Wears a cross
Has cut the cloth
To the contours of
Her slinky slunky body
Cheeky monkey
Orders takeaway
Grabs the bag
And runs away
Round a corner
Down Brick Lane
Runs in to Robin Gunningham
But she don't know it's him
( She thought it was Banksy! )
But what
She does know
Is that some
Senior members
Of the Church
Are xxxxxxx SCUM
Dirty filthy xxxxxxxx
With 'A' levels
In child SEX ABUSE

'STEP BACK INTO IT'

Taken from 'Ipswich Zero 6'

Your glittering career
It started here
Across this table
All those months ago
Your eyes
Much brighter then
And I've kept
The Golden Virginia
Hand rolling tobacco paper
That you left
On the sofa
All this time
I wonder why?
Some keepsake
Before l let you loose
With your
Performing Arts Degree
To step back into it
With all the mainliners

Tonight
Asking you all this
In our Q&A session
Relayed straight
Into an FM radio station

'TELL ME HOW
THEY GET THE STUFF
INTO PRISONS'

'EXPLAIN HOW
ALL THIS HAS
AFFECTED YOUR
MENSTRUAL CYCLE'

'ARE YOU
PERSONALLY AWARE
OF THE NUMBNESS?'

The radio station
Are paying £400 for this
And like our
Initial deal back in March
You will get fifty per cent
Before you step back into it
Only this time
You're gonna have
To keep on walking
'Cause I've taken this thing
As far as l can now

And do l blame myself
For your rapid demise?

I suppose the answer
Is 'Yes'

Even though
You answered
The small ad

Continuing with the Urban Werewolf draft

Urban werewolf
By the power generator
Sends a howl
Across the highway
Traffic lights turn to blue
The ghost of Ginsberg
Hovering above
Eddington Tower
Peter Orlorsky
And the Chickenhawks
Sun burned pages
From sixties
Counter culture papers
Fluttering down
Werewolf turns
Takes the shadowy path
Past the Esso garage
Enshrouded in moonlight
But all is not well
At the farm
Burning cars
On a painted horizon
I'm turning in this bed
Can't sleep
So l can't dream
And dreams
Are protein
Substance
The only route
To the everclear
Feel you near
Through snow
Blizzard ice
Relentless
In the tumult
Punch drunk
By flash floods
Of imagery
Played out
On twenty four hour
News channels
Famine
Tempest
Disease

The urban werewolf
Screams
Turns
Runs
Ever
Faster
