Another famous person
By Simon Varwell
Richard Gough spotted on Byres Road today. He didn’t notice me.
Not that he let on, anyway.

I like your pop up links – very impressive, I feel quite ‘low-tech’ in comparison…

Not my doing – seems to be WordPress standard. You should swap over!

Sometimes I like the pop-up links, but then other times I find them annoying. I have seen them also on Blogger. Not sure how you get them working…

I did think about swapping, may sample it for a bit…by the way, Glasgow moves for me too, nothing is ever where it was last time …thought it was my age, but obviously not!!

I know they’re not your fault, but those pop-up links are swiftly turning into one of the most annoying things on the internets…

What pop-up links?

He’s talking about when you mouse-over the links and it shows you what the page is…precisely what Danny loves!

Ah right. I think they’re cool – a little suggestion of what you could be visiting, before you have to visit it. Like a magic inter-dimensional portal into an alternative spatial reality.
Or something.

Essentially the pre-cursor to teleportation, perhaps?
Monday January 29 2007 at 1:19 am |
Absolutely.
And it’s just occurred to me that if/when Richard Gough googles himself he’ll be rather chuffed to see that this post warrants 10 comments – then disappointed to find that none of them are about him.
Sorry Mr Gough. I bet you’ve never been the cause of a discussion about teleportation before, though.

I think if Mr. Gough has any concern for technological advancement, he will feel honored with this association.
In fact, it might not be a bad idea for Mr. Gough’s agent to peruse this conversation and market him as a forward-thinker willing to lay down his own gain for the common good of humanity. Just a thought.

How to insert links on Blogger: Open another browser window that you want to create a link to. Copy the Http address from the address bar. Go back to your Blog post that you are creating. Highlight the word or phrase that you want to cause to be the link, then up in the top of the post window you will see a little icon that looks like a piece of chain link and click. That brings up a box for you to then copy the Http address too, click OK and viola – you have created a link.

Thanks for your comments guys. Sorry Simon, I didn’t see you on Byres Road – next time give me a shout and say hi! Although I’m very busy with all kinds of things, I never have too much time to find a word for my fans!

Was wondering how long it would be before you tried that, Justin.
Monday January 29 2007 at 4:06 pm |
It wasn’t me, Simon. I think it was the real Richard Gough.

This selection of comments are bordering on the surreal…your blog has this effect on people…inhabit a parallel universe with Simon Varwell
Monday January 29 2007 at 11:33 pm |
All thanks to the Magical Powers of Richard Gough™.

Hi Simon…..could you give me a heads up next time you see Goughy? He owes me a tenner.
Tuesday January 30 2007 at 2:18 pm |
Hey Varwell, don’t do anything for Hately. He was crap in his two games for County and set them on a multi-game losing spree.
Tuesday January 30 2007 at 5:13 pm |
Simon, have you never seen me on Byres Road? I hang out in the West End too, even though I play for that team on the other side of the city. Unlike Goughy, who prefers TBox these days, you’re most likely to find me in the various hostelries that decorate Partick and Hyndland. Keep an eye out, and I might even buy you a pint some time. Did you know I’m very very rich…?

Right, Mark Hately and Neil Lennon (or Mark and Shed as your email addresses suggest you are) – there’ll be no impersonating of footballers on here, lest I get lawyers from both sides of the Old Firm on my back and get hounded out of Weegieland!
And what about Partick Thistle – nobody want to pretend they’re… er… um… yeah, maybe not.
Tuesday January 30 2007 at 8:14 pm |
I don’t know what Weegieland is, but I do know that you don’t want to get involved in any of that Firm skirmish problem you all have over there.
Ever heard of a Glasgow smile? I thought so.
