or Stephen Fry

OR Stephen Fry flavoured yoghurts.
I didn't know it was a hockney, but I bet I know a few things about Rossini that'll have him and Willy Duwitt running for google!
( riverghost blessed are the gleesmakers, Thu 3 May 2007, 19:34, archived)

yes.
I don't think not recognising a hockney with text on it makes one uncultured.

I could also fire out some facts about 17th Century german art in Weimar that would have him askjeevesing til dawn.

That's a second reference to my hair you've made today!
( riverghost blessed are the gleesmakers, Thu 3 May 2007, 19:46, archived)

haha
yes, sorry. I'm not stalking you honest. I've been having a "type first thing that comes to mind" day and you're always on my mind.

The reference earlier was because you have spikey hair, I used to have spikey hair and people were always asking to touch it, so i imagined it was a problem suffered by all spikeys.

Am I the only one who thinks Hockney is a charlatan?
Second rate grandma's watercolour style pictures and a 'art for the masses and it looks like something and isn't a cow in formaldehyde' tag-line doesn't make you an artist, it makes you a cunt.
