baccy? Nurshe? Oh Nurshey!”
Peter Muggins: Thespian, Playwright, Author, Director,

“Who
am I to be asked to endorse such momentous work as this?
My name is Joe and I am but a humble actor , a story teller, a court
jester, a bullshitter. I first met the political dear heart that is
Timmy
Shedhispants when we shared a tent – though I hasten to add that it was
not the same tent
that Timmy shared with two schoolgirls at the Socialist Summer Camp of
1986 – no, this was the Anti-Poll Tax Tent where
Timmy, Pol Pot Kane and myself kept vigil in the fight against the
forces of the
great capitalist establishment from the green grassy knoll
of George Square. It was here that the dear boy Timmy
inspired the masses to action with his fiery speeches, Pol Pot inspired
them to
sleep with his lullabies and I inspired them to flee to the nearest
public
hostelry with my Brechtian agit-prop… ‘Once more into the breach dear
luvvies…’
Have I told you about my new film yet? It’s called “A Laugh, A Song And
An Arts
Council Grant.” There might be a part in it for Timmy if he's looking
for a new job. Memories? Ah what memories indeed dear boy.”
