mogwai1977 : Are you a Bolton fan? Have you been to the game tonight?
Peter Kay : No I'm not. I'm overweight. Mentally scarred by football as a child. I was busy playing off ground tig instead of playing football, or chasing that stray alsatian off the pitch.
Peter Kay chuckles
deadmanjones : Did everybody at The Neptune know what was going on? How did you arrange for the audience, offer them all a bag of pork scratchings and thus bus fare home?
Peter Kay : Noooo, we plied them with half price drinks! They thought the talent show was dreadful.
Gomez : Do you have a cliched anecdote about being 'funny' in the school playground to stop the big boys picking on you?
