Very mature. This doesn't make you look very sane, you know. Way to clear that name of yours.

Oh Mr Dean, good job you're not a journalist, you have a crap memory. It was Sue and Stu who hadn't a clue about that nonsense from Holland.. hardly surprising, they'd only been listening to the Beach Boys for two years...

Man, we gotta stop referencing blueboarders all over here before the blueboarders fucking invade this place...

Think I need to respond to Mr Doe's allegations here. I'm far from being a fantasist, in 1966 I did send off numerous votes for The Beach Boys in the NME's annual end of year poll. They won by around 100 votes, I sent in around 40 so I did my bit. Don't know which surgeon operated on Mr Doe's nose but mine said I could return to work within the week which is what I did. And yes me and my partner Sylvia were gassed by the Russian mafia after stopping overnight at a service station just outside Paris while driving a motorhome to the south of France. As Editor of the Metro newspaper I'm not into making things up. I also produced 17 issues of blueboarders magazine promoting Brian and the boys' music at great expense to myself. I also take issue with your comments about the book Joe Thomas and I co-wrote. I put in 50pc and read through the proofs at least six times to get the book right. We fell out because Mr Thomas wanted me to pay for all the printing while he sold all the books.. very Irish logic. A wee tale I heard about Mr Doe...  he was in conversation once with someone quite close to the Brian camp and who had a huge knowledge of Beach Boys releases... after a while the guy got tired of Mr Doe saying 'yes I've got that one'....  so he started making up various titles of boots.. 'yes I've got that one' answered Mr Doe several times. And for those who think I don't know much about the Beach Boys... one room of my house is devoted to Beach Boys memorabilia... at the last count there were more than 1,200 CDs, 90-plus books, a similar amount of DVDS, dozens of framed front pages of magazines, gold records, a specially signed poster of one of the boys' first concerts signed by Fred Vail... need I go on? There are Beach Boys fans and there are people who think they are Beach Boys fans....

So Andrew, do we have your side of the story?
