Rob Grant’s Twitter.

Pretty much what it says in the title.

Is Lily Grant Rob Grant’s daughter?

[ori-STUDFARM]

It must be the real one….it says so.

Actually, is it the real one?

[Danny Stephenson]

it seems genuine enough, tbh.

[SkyAndSun]

It’s him, I think – in response to @bobbyllew: ‘It is indeed I. Doc Sympathy at your service. Hope you can make it to Hereford. Bring a friend and double the audience.’

I also sent this to @realrobgrant: ‘Hi Rob, apologies if this is an annoying question – but what did you think of the recent Red Dwarf special? Thanks!’

His reply: ‘Hi Dude. Not annoying, no. Didn’t see it.

[Andrew]

Seb, do you have a facepalm I could borrow…?

How did the release of Series VII and VIII feel to you?
Like watching a video tape of your ex-wife?s next honeymoon.

[SkyAndSun]

I don’t really know that much about the circumstances around Rob’s leaving. I wouldn’t class myself as a ‘hardcore’ fan, in that I really only watch the shows – the conventions and extensive behind-the-scenes knowledge aren’t really for me (though I became more interested in the latter when BTE was announced). Given all that, I figured it was a reasonable question to which I received a reasonable response :)

[The PerformingMonkey]

It’s better than asking him when his next book’s coming out. That would probably piss him off more.

[Pete Part Three]

I’m going to ask him where he gets his ideas from.

[ori-STUDFARM]

I want to know when series 2 of The Strangerers is coming out. I’m still hanging from that cliff!

[redhead85]

Apparantly he’s doing a stand up gig in London on Tuesday. I’m planning on heading on down – any other Londoners up for it?

[Jo]

Where in London?

[redhead85]

Dunno – he said he’d confirm where but hasn’t…I work in London Bridge so anywhere is fairly accessible for me. Would you be up for it?

[Jo]

Yeah absolutely :o)

[Ian Symes]

Yeah, count me in too.

[redhead85]

Coolio – I’m keeping half an eye out on his Twitter to find out where, so I’ll post it on here if I spot it. He’s cutting it a bit fine with the location though – I’m assuming he doesn’t mind if people don’t turn up?! ^__^

[Jonathan Capps]

I’d be up for this, too.

[Ian Symes]

You’re not invited.

[Seb Patrick]

I’m inviting Cappsy.

[Alex]

Might go to that depending on him actually telling us where it is of course.

[Jo]

>I?m inviting Cappsy.

If you love Cappsy so much, why don’t you just marry him?

[The PerformingMonkey]

Don’t forget to shout ‘Where’s Dave Lista??’

[Tarka Dal]

> Coolio

Coolio gets a bloody invite and I’m still waiting. This is unacceptable.

[redhead85]

> Coolio gets a bloody invite and I?m still waiting. This is unacceptable.

Me and Coolio are like THAT *crosses fingers*

My dear Karl, I would be offended if you did not also attend.

[Tarka Dal]

Coolio has arthritis?

(I would like to thank Tim Vine for supplying me with the inspiration for that remark).

[redhead85]

We’re doing a telethon together for Arthritis Awareness….

Mr Grant has twittered me back to say that the gig has been cancelled! Tut, tut. Where am I going to go drinking now?

[Tarka Dal]

See you in ten minutes?

[redhead85]

I’ve managed to sprain my knee so I now look like Kevin Spacey’s character in ‘The Usual Suspects’ as I walk down the street…

…give me fifteen ^__^

[The PerformingMonkey]

How did you sprain your knee? If that isn’t too rude.

[redhead85]

Why would that be rude? Unless it’s down to trying to replicate position 48 in the Karma Sutra…

I tripped over in the street like a right noob. :-( I did it on Thursday and it’s steadily been getting worse ever since. Especially when I have to walk for say more than 5 minutes at a time.

[Alex]

Cancelled? That’s annoying. On the plus side for me by sheer chance I ended up spending an this evening sat with Mac McDonald watching his daughter perform in Soho, which is a sentence I never expected to find the need to use.

[Andrew]

Sod it, I’ve bloody joined Twitter. Took me months to wean myself off fucking Facebook and here I go again…

[TheLeen]

O_O :D

[redhead85]

> On the plus side for me by sheer chance I ended up spending an this evening sat with Mac McDonald watching his daughter perform in Soho

Dude! That’s amazing! Both he and his two daughters are fab at singing (they sang at DJ 2002 I think?) He’s such a nice guy. He let me sit on his lap into the early hours and didn’t call the police or security or anything. Even when I wore his glasses…

[Alex]

Yes, she was quite a very good singer. The only unfortunate thing for her was that she was on just before Martin Harley who is one of the best guitar players in UK at the moment and as with most of his shows he outplayed and outsang anyone else that came on.

[Tarka Dal]

> Sod it, I?ve bloody joined Twitter. Took me months to wean myself off fucking Facebook and here I go again?

As?

[The PerformingMonkey]

> He let me sit on his lap into the early hours and didn?t call the police or security or anything.

Er, I don’t think any bloke would be calling security if a ginger cutie like you was sitting on his lap.

[redhead85]

> Er, I don?t think any bloke would be calling security if a ginger cutie like you was sitting on his lap.

Hehe, thanks ^__^ Although I was only 17 at the time – proper jail-bait!

[The PerformingMonkey]

> proper jail-bait!

If there’s grass on the pitch, scratch that itch…;)

[redhead85]

> If there?s grass on the pitch, scratch that itch?;)

LOL!! I haven’t heard that one for a long time. That, or ‘If there’s grass on the wicket, let’s play cricket’

[Tarka Dal]

Presumably that’s the upper class variant.

(I said class)

[Ben Paddon]

I sent Rob Grant a tweet this morning (the afternoon for those of you still in the UK) thanking him for hours of entertainment and some cracking novels. Never expected a response, but he sent me a direct message thanking me. Which was nice. :)

[Kris Carter]

And then I found the original copy of the Bible…

[ori-STUDFARM]

Well I hope the original is better than the new testament one I read! Talk about depressing…..they killed off the main character half way through. Crucified him!

[Ben Paddon]

You should read the Book of Mormon if you thought the New Testament was bad. So much retconning it’s ridiculous. Honestly, the entire series should just be rebooted.

[ori-STUDFARM]

I thought that was what Scientology was about.

[JamesTC]

I’m still waiting for the spin-off book about Mary teaming up with kids to fight aliens.
