Never Meet Your Heroes
They're bound to disappoint - like the time we booked Wayne Hussey for the B3ta Radio Show. Five minutes before we're due to record, Wayne
phones, lost on the M25 with his Brazilian wife screaming in the background. Not so much the King of Goth, as a hen-pecked flake.

Raymond Cusick.
A name that probably doesn't mean much to sensible people who have lives, but to Doctor Who fans, famous as the designer of the Daleks way back in 1963. A couple of years ago he was guest of honour at a convention in Liverpool, and surrounded by about 15 fan-built Daleks, expressed his wistful regret at not having a proper photograph of himself surrounded by his creations. I step forward and offer to take such a photograph and mail it to him in due course. Imagine my disappointment, when I look at the picture properly on my PC screen the day I get home from the convention, and discover that at the precise moment the shutter went off, Raymond has decided to adopt a facial expression more consistent with being anally violated by a grizzly bear. I never did send him the picture :(
