Okay, true, we don't have Gaviscon (I googled it) in the U.S., but I knew immediately that it was going to be an antacid that sounded like Gav is gone Rolling Eyes

I just said it wasn't funny because I thought your friend had really died and I care about you YOU DICKHEAD !!! Laughing Laughing Laughing

Murphy : Oh no...! How did he die?

Paddy : The big "C"...

Murphy : What...? He drowned...!?

It's called gallows humour, old boy. Probably more prevalent in Alabama than Texas.

No, but I once saw him on stage at Caesar's Palace, Luton (no - I kid you not!) and it was bloody surreal.
Michael Bentine was ever more weird!

I still have the tapes of a lot of the original 1950s Goon Shows - incredible stuff.
