Book 2 – The cover
Bar anything truly radical happening this looks set to be the final cover for Book 2 – Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder.
Publication date is around the same as the first one, so towards the end of Feb or early March.

you’ve gotten younger from the first book
September 23rd, 2008 at 3:09 pm
and in getting younger your arm has morphed into a chicken drumstick.
September 23rd, 2008 at 3:11 pm
They just caught my good side.
September 23rd, 2008 at 3:22 pm
I hope it’s better than the last fucker.
September 23rd, 2008 at 3:23 pm

September 23rd, 2008 at 3:32 pm

September 23rd, 2008 at 3:33 pm
I am reading the first one at the moment,but in true adhd style,i am also read Slash’s Biography and Love will save the day..
I am enjoying it immensly,its nice to read about places i actually know ,makes the story all the more vivid..
Jimmy the bollix’s brother is a complete cunt though.although he could redemm himself before the end…
September 23rd, 2008 at 3:44 pm
*redeem
September 23rd, 2008 at 3:49 pm
that’s a really ugly picture. well done.
September 23rd, 2008 at 3:49 pm
Nice hint of pubic thatch there.
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:04 pm
Will there be a publicity tour, London, Paris, Kilcock etc?
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:07 pm
Nice hint of pubic thatch there.
Had to get them to black it up a bit, cover the grey.
The publicity itinerary has not yet been decided but Kilcock will almost certainly be the first port of call.
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:08 pm
What about Muff?
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:10 pm
Nicely trimmed.
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:16 pm
Won’t out sell Cliff Richard’s autobiography though…
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:17 pm
Cliff has Jesus on his side though.
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:18 pm
Won’t out sell Cliff Richard’s autobiography though…
Cliff’s a card alright,the whole pretending to be a christian while actually being Satan incarnate and all that.. you have to hand it to him,he certainly knows how to bring in a crowd..
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:24 pm
I will inform the Kilcock Council immediately! They can start planning which roads to block off and where to site the heli-pad etc. Just dont tell them you had your muff trimmed ok? They’re very conservative.
Tell Fintan he did a grand job on the cover too will you?
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:31 pm
I will.
And I’m sure my groin will be back to its ZZ Top best by publication.
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:37 pm
Paris it is so, not Limerick.
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:42 pm
What does the banner say where the little dudes are having their ‘Manifestación’?anarchist7
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:45 pm
heh, nothing quite so Catalan.
‘Stag’.
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:49 pm
heh,though the anarchists had turned the Cathedral into an Occupa..seeing those squats in Barcelona was a hightlight.. Loads of large FUCK YOU’s to the Govt dotted around the city,brings a tear to eye now even thinking about it..
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:54 pm
I didn’t know Shane McGowan was a pal of yours.
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:57 pm
La Sagrada Familia?. Does anyone get run over by a tram?
September 23rd, 2008 at 4:58 pm
Only some old man everyone thinks is a hobo
September 23rd, 2008 at 5:02 pm
Gay Byrne?
September 23rd, 2008 at 5:22 pm
Where can I score myself one of those Ron’s Bar t-shirts?
September 23rd, 2008 at 5:27 pm
Sure it isn’t George Michael BoS?
September 23rd, 2008 at 5:30 pm

Ron’s bar.

You’re the picture of ill health, Twenty. Peter Cushing could not look as Gothic as you still manage to in a Hawaiian skinny-tee.
Cover looks great!
September 23rd, 2008 at 5:54 pm
It’s a bit gaudi, isn’t it?
September 23rd, 2008 at 5:54 pm
Good luck with it, and don’t leave Carnalway or Meanus out of the tour.
September 23rd, 2008 at 6:14 pm
God work, Stephen. Shame on the rest of you!
September 23rd, 2008 at 6:54 pm
No copyright problem with the title Twenty?
It was used as the title of an episode of Californication.
September 23rd, 2008 at 7:02 pm
would they not bang this out for Christmas like?
September 23rd, 2008 at 7:05 pm
I think it’s been used more than that maggot.
No, Christmas is not the time apparently. They have their slots and slots have to be booked and all that. I dunno.
September 23rd, 2008 at 7:48 pm
By combining puns with art history, I make learning FUN.
September 23rd, 2008 at 10:40 pm
maggot, I saw your cake comment: true – but I don’t trust An Post to ferry delicate chilled goods all the way up the country!
September 23rd, 2008 at 11:14 pm
How about a home delivery ? You wrote that you favoured them Jo!
September 24th, 2008 at 12:03 am
Heh.
September 24th, 2008 at 12:03 am
quality……
September 24th, 2008 at 1:46 am
Cover is great Twenty. Looking forward to grabbing a copy :)
September 24th, 2008 at 7:02 am
Why the glum face?
You should be smiling, cause you look like you could balance things on your ears.
Cool.
September 24th, 2008 at 7:54 am
Why the glum face?
You should be smiling
That is his smile.

Is there anything in there about You Know Who? A centre-spread like in Playboy? I’m only asking.
September 24th, 2008 at 8:38 am
Sister maggot says: Sure it isn’t George Michael BoS?
Eheh. The love-child of Shane McGowan and George Michael.
Neither of them would be able to deny it either cos they can’t remember anything.
He’s such a social climber, is Twenty. You watch, it’ll be Peaches Geldof next.
September 24th, 2008 at 12:45 pm
There is a very high level of civilisation on this thread.
September 24th, 2008 at 4:06 pm
Don’t worry V. I have my new internet connection up and running now. It won’t happen again.
September 24th, 2008 at 4:26 pm
Good man, Twenty. Looking forward to receiving my autographed copy, assumimg the Araby Customs Hoors don’t confiscate it!
September 24th, 2008 at 5:13 pm
It looks fab, Twenty.
Love the colour scheme.
September 24th, 2008 at 5:29 pm
Cheers all.
September 24th, 2008 at 7:04 pm
Well done Twenty. `A crude comic genius’ the sunday times have read it already eh,you ole brown tongue.
