Cryptic message for MoFi's Chengwin-fans. Checking out the Chengwin site, as I am wont to do from time to time, there's a new message on the front page -- a disturbing message without any explanation. Is Chengwin going to lose to Chunk? To Chixon? Is Chabio going to fall prey to some evil plot? Any NYC monkeys know what's what? What the HELL is GOING ON?

We've had a post on Chengwin before, but seeing that it's rather old and likely remembered only by the oldest of monkeys, I didn't see a problem with a new FPP. Apologies if I've broken an unspoken FPP protocol that yet eludes my comprehension. But never mind all that -- is Chengwin in trouble? Do I need to head to the East Village right away?

  • This is a blatant double post. Probably a self link too. *exits whistling*
  • Whachit, you...
  • What's this about Keith Chegwin?
  • Audible gasp!
  • Chengwin's obvious desire to acquire WMD will lead to his being the target of a pre-emptive nuclear strike. The use of disproportionate force against deviant pingoids was recognised by Gibbon as one of the infallible symptoms of a failing Empire.
  • I too could have sworn you said Chegwin.
  • I think I have fully proved my Britishness by knowing who Cheggers is, even though I am Strine.
  • My good chap, your status as a British citizen is undoubted. (I assume you raised your glass to Her Majesty last night, and praised the Lord that the Ashes are coming home at last.)
  • I am certainly pleased that the Ashes are going home (even though they never leave Lords....) because it was getting boring, winning all the time. ;) And of course I raise my glass to the Queen, since she's our head of State! (but I won't tell you the oath I make)
  • I've met Keith Chegwin's sister.
  • Do tell?
  • I worked with Stanley Baxter's sister.
  • Janice Long, DJ, presenter, set up a radio station in Lpool a few years ago. I did a crappy late night show with a mate (well, my mate did it, I turned up and made stupid comments on it). A bit like here.
