Sweary Tune Fun
Hoorah for the Touretteophone
It's a keyboard that swears. Hoorah. It's me, with Ioan Withers (who did the hard work on the flash for this one), Stefan Hamilton and James Wood.
Remember, swearing is both big and clever.

Blode Episode 2
I've made a new cartoon. It's Tales of the Blode Episode 2 - A Trip to the Seaside and it will almost certainly crush your will to live.
You'll want the volume on really.

My Mate Marmot
Lots of lovely people have sent me pictures of Marmots. Hooray! The best was this moving Marmot Love Valentine, from Deborah Mills.

Isn't it moving and lovely? Thankyou very very much to all those of you who have sent me piccies of the little buggers.

Also, Yomgaille has made this fantastic interactive windows crab. Woo.

Marmot Mayhem!
Rathergood's holiday continues. I am currently in Vancouver, and yesterday I conquered Whistler mountain. I met two Hoary Marmots atop the mighty peak.
Vancouver has a surprising number of shoe shops. The only sensible explanation is that the people of Canada do indeed, as I have long suspected, have many more feet than other nationalities. This nation of human centipedes is nevertheless a beautiful and friendly place, and has Hoary Marmots in, which is a good thing. In a good year, the Hoary Marmot can sleep for 8 months. Bravo.
Marmots are currently my favourite things.
If you have a picture of a marmot, please send it to me at marmots@rathergood.com

Holiday! Celebrate!
I am currently on holiday in America. This evening I shall be heading off to West Virginia, where I shall begin my quest to catch "Old John", the giant catfish.
Old John is 15 feet long, and two hundred years old. I shall be the first to tame this mighty beast of the rivers, and shall use him as my fishy steed. Astride Old John, I shall travel the waterways of North America, spreading terror and confusion and prodding people with sticks.
Fantastic plan for a holiday, I'm sure you'll agree. Hoorah!

TV Show Concept
I've drawn up plans for a new TV show. It's going to be based around some beautiful women with angle grinders. A mysterious man called Charlie, who you'll never see, will ask them to grind different angles in each episode.
It's called "Charlie's Angles"
It's guaranteed to be a big hit. If you'd like to finance me to make a pilot, please send non-sequential used 5s and 10s to heressomemoney@rathergood.com

Free Will
Sonny Mullet of The Drug Squad contacted the Guru:
Dear Guru,
If God is omnipotent and omniscient, then he obviously knows the future. But if he can't be wrong, then the future has to be all fore-ordained. If this is the case how can man truly have free will?
Warmest regards,
Sonny Mullet,
Banjo Operative
Dear Mr Mullet
For a full run down on the Philosophical theories regarding Free Will, I suggest you watch the seminal Philosophical masterpiece "Free Willy"
I hope this helps
Regards
The Guru
As ever, any question whatsoever about anything at all to guru@rathergood.com

Tom Burt sent this rather grumpy stone headed crab over to the Lair. He seems to be settling in quite nicely.

As ever, please feel free to send any crabs you may feel like making to hereismycrab@rathergood.com
