Message: | hi can i pay buy cash cheque or p.o for smeggy and the cheesey bit badges-what address should i send it to cheers john | |
What the hell is a cheque? A postal order? You are taking the piss. Unless you have in fact managed to communicate with me through a rift in space/time from the 1950s. Oh hang on you could be the John McVicar, they're not keen on letting you have Credit/Debit cards inside are they? But you got out of prison in the 70s didn't you? And wrote a book, and presumably got paid for it? Surely you've got some plastic (you don't need a paypal account if that's what you think). Mind you if you are the John McVicar I'm definitely not going to give you my address cos you'll probably come round and kneecap me. But what would the John McVicar want with Smeggy and the Cheesybits badges? The most likely explanation is that you are in fact Rob in which case you can pay cash when you come round on Friday and frighten me with your latest song. | ||

Message: | Dear Dave Cheesybits , Please forgive my using this means to reach you but I cant think of any other way of letting you know the urgent matter at hand. I acted as personal attorney to (late)Mr.B.F.Cheesybits, who lived and worked here for more than twenty years as a major contractor and businessman. On the 1st of October 2005, he and his wife and only daughter were involved in an automobile accident while visiting a neighboring country on vacation. They were buried two weeks after and I have exhausted all means of reaching who may have been related to them. This has been made more difficult because no mention was made of any relative while he was alive. To the best of my knowledge, before his death, he had an investment deposit totalling more than TEN Million Five hundred thousand United States Dollars(US$10.500.000.00) with the major bank here and now they have asked me to provide a next of kin if there is, or the estate will then revert to the government and so it would be lost. My proposal is that you allow to be presented for this role so that documentation can be processed and payment made in your favour. This is a project which will see us partner to realise. I would be willing for us to discuss terms of participation in order to protect our various interests. I want to assure you right away that I have positioned this deal to not last for more that two weeks. I shall be willing to discuss futher on this if write back or send to me your direct telephone number so we can discuss in the type of confidential atmosphere which this matter requires. Awaiting your immediate response. Barrister Jegede (Esq). Jegede & ASSOCIATES. AVENUE DE PELOMA, P.M.B 35. LOME TOGO | |

Message: | Aaah! Smeggy and the Cheesy Bits! After all these years I am finally catching up with you bastards - you who gave out all those very bad taste stickers at gigs in the Vault and me, being the demure young 15 year old that I was, stuck one to my school blazer and wore it to school and got suspended for a week (which I thought was pretty cool). I hung out with Rat (who I hear is now a matrtial arts wizard now) in Brighton that week and we got up to all sorts of mischief though we never did blow up the law courts like we meant to). All it said on the sticker was "Did I get my cunt out on the settee??" What was WRONG with the teachers in those days? They had no sense of humour at all - at least not at Hove County Grammer School for Girls..... In fact, what was wrong with my Dad too? He threw a complete wobbler about it when he spotted the sticker on the same school blazer in his rear view mirror on a trip to London. If my lovely daughter had the good taste to wear a sticker like t hat now I would up her pocket money. Unfortunately she's embarrassed by the way I behave at 45. Such is life. Hey _ I loved your gigs - they were the best. I have some awesome shots of the mess in the crowd at some King Kurt gigs in London (somewhere down the Old Kent Rd - can't remember the venue for some strange reason.....) One of those shots I took is in the Museum of London archives.... Piss fuck labias xxx Anna | |
You can't have got the sticker off us, we were never that organised, also, despite our constant attempts to try and shock, we would never use a word like settee. I hope we didn't lead you too far astray. It would be an awful responsibility to know that I'd denied the world a cure for cancer or something. 14.12.08 - Actually now i come to think of it SATCB might have continued for a bit after I left. I think there was time before Smeggy went off to join King Kurt so you may have got the sticker of "us". All I can say is that if they were using words like settee then, then they obviously missed my steadying influence. | ||

Message: | Dear House of Cheese, I found your explantion of white dog shit very entertaining [how does one think up such convoluted, and yet impressively ingenious garbage as that?] but ultimately as doomed to failure as Dr. Bill's. I found this scientific report as a pdf file so have turned it into a webpage to provide your readers with the right answer. You'll find the answer in the second section entitled: "COENZYME B12 CATALYZED REACTIONS IN CANINE FAECES." The scientists conclude that "our calculations favor(sic) reaction via protonated radical species as the primary intermediate. Homolytic fission of the Co-C bond in the coenzyme furnishes the radical center with magnesium and calcium ions, thereby inducing protonation of the acetaldehyde donor group in the active site of the enzyme, which finally results in isographic hydrogen-bonded epoxidation of magnesium calcium acetaldehyde" whatever the f**k that means!

Message: | Re White dog shite of yesteryear - Since my early attempts at stardom with Clockwork crims and my goal to produce the ultimate star sandwich war defence system for bands also sadly failed i fell back on life as a scientist so i can get off the sandwich stuff and answer this. Old 1970s dogfood had lots of calcium filler in these days dogs are fed much more classy horsemeat (yeah like cesar) with less crap filler. Annabel also chipped in that people scoop it up (not white dog shite- any recent anal presents are now removed by owners). I must point out i am not a dog food expert nor connected to the makers of cesar. Dave - thats an incredible sensible answer will I be banned? | |
Very sensible but, alas, not accurate. Anybody of a "certain" age will of course realise that, like most things in life, the "white dogshite of yesteryear" was in fact a hangover from World War Everybody. The practice was started in North Africa during our gallant boys' campaign against "The Dessert Fox". It has been well known for centuries that it is important to keep soldiers occupied when they are not involved in actual fighting. In North Africa some bright spark came up with the idea of getting the bored soldiers to paint camel dung with whitewash so that they could be used to demarcate the edges of roads and the imaginary gardens that officers had outside their tents - this can clearly be seen on war footage of the time. In England, of course, there were very few camels and so the soldiers were forced to paint the next best thing. This practice continued well into the 1970s when it was finally abandoned for health and safety reasons. Your explanation, while convincing and widely held to be true, is, I'm afraid, an urban myth. | ||

Message: | At last someone else who knows that Jesus Christ Our Lord is really a Duck. I have waited years for this revelation to be shared by another mortal. What is also known by "The Few" is that John The Baptist has revealed himself to Modern Day Man as a lampost in Dundee. The one by the entrance to the bus station with the fossilised white dog turd at its base. This of course prompts the question asked by so many seekers of the truth, the same question that puzzled the Magi. "Where is the white dog shit of yesteryear?" Is it due to diet or are there more fundamental laws of physics at play? It is surely a rare thing these days. Gone are the piles of white dogshit of my youth. Alas Alack. But no need for despondancy, my underpants are on fire but I shall ignore the pain certain in the knowledge that CheesyBits will one day Rule the Earth with his bride Princess Soupkettle at his side smiling through her grey teeth. Meanwhile it is time for the Home Service broadcast from the BBC which means I must now wobble my jowls and retire to the third door on the right.

Tell me more of this Princess Soupkettle of whom you speak. Is she warmed by the fires of righteousness? Is she bountiful and over flowing with the milk of human kindness? Hath she hair like driven snow? Can she get her teeth fixed?

Message: | Dear Bill, Yes, birthdays are good; weddings/anniversaries are even better. We'll do any of them. On several gig listing sites, we are promoted as a "wedding band" so a silver anniversary will be no problem for us - especially with our crowd pleasers "Bum Banditeers" and "I fucking h*%# the West Wight" (which incidentally we can tailor to suit your locality - how about "I fucking hate Willingdon or Pevensey"?) As for the lyrics ... yes, we'll use them. Anything that means we don't have to think up lyrics is great. As you mentioned, kids nowadays don't know how easy they got it - what with stalls selling ready made sarnies and ready-to-throw instant meals, pop stars that don't move around much, tv programmes and colour supplements telling you what are the best things to throw at pop bands, college courses teaching you how to throw things accurately to cause maximum damage, targets often painted on pop stars, satellite guidance systems for surgical stikes, stewards who will actually pin the pop star down for you while you pelt them with eggs, ... the list goes on. All very different in our day - you often had to dodge quickly or you'd end up getting hit by friendly fire. And finally, yes, we were trying a one upmanship 'who threw the first food product' but we concede defeat - we've asked around the band and we can't beat your great grandfather and his beef dripping crust back in 1813. And so we throw it out to the world - can anyone find a snack-related assault on an entertainer earlier than 1813? | |

Well I would comply with you request were it not for the fact that I would soon receive an email from Platform One complaining about this email and the fact that it wasn't from them. I use the word "would" of course because Platform One ar'n't in the least bit interested in what I put on my website. You gave it away by demonstrating that you possessed a sense of humour. Organisations by their very nature do not possess senses of humour (or is it sense of humours). Even if somebody in the organisation thought the above message would be an appropriate response, which it would be, they would have to take the matter to some kind of committee before they could send it and I'm sure any humour would be ironed out of it by the time it had been considered. So... Nice try Rob. P.S. Nobody says "not-for-profits". They would say "non-profit-making", that is a dead give away. P.P.S. Ooops. I just checked their website. Scrub that last postscript. | ||

If this song ever comes into being I would seriously suggest submitting it to the Guiness Book of Records under the heading "Most Obscure Song Ever". Think about it - a song about a sandwich that was thrown at a band that nobody has ever heard of during a concert in a town that nobody has ever heard of (unless you live in Bexhill) written as a result of a conversation between to people that no one has ever heard of on the comments page of a website that no one has ever heard of.

With reference to Allys somewhat disparaging remarks about my banjo, this friendy little instrument does unfortunately encounter more than it's fair share of unreasonable predjudice but most people like it.

Message: | Dear Francis Pickering and the Sandwich Cold Case Squad, Yes, we would like to offer our services to you. We have therefore started to organise a Free Bill O'Neill's Sandwich Benefit Concert, hopefully at Ryde Theatre. There will be quite a number of bands in the line-up, as well as a rabble-rousing speech in the middle by the tub-thumping Rev. John Curtis, a long-time, close friend of Bill's. Francis, you will need to produce t-shirts and badges to be sold along with various propaganda literature at the special table. We'll arrange the sandwiches, but please keep Bill away from them. You know what he's like when he's got one in his hand and we certainly don't want a faceful of an egg and cress sandwich, no matter how well made they are, when we're up there playing. Also, might need a few open air rallies in the middle of Newport at some point, but again, don't let Bill near the sarnies! I think this gig is doubly important, since I see from the e-mail by the Sandwich Cold Case Squad, that there are children involved (Hmm, interesting - sex with a sandwich!). This whole side of this sordid affair will need to be hushed up or we'll have Social Services involved and then all our sandwiches have had it. P.S. You'll be pleased to hear we've written a Free-Bill-O'Neill's-Sandwich anthem specially for the gig. | |

Message: | Dear House of Cheese, This is really for the person called Handbag Nigel. I think you should be ashamed of yourself. I have seen the suffering these decaying sandwiches have to put up with, when they are paraded for auction on the sandwich walk in front of hundreds of slobbering and hungry eyes at the auction rooms. It really is a disgustingly sad sight, as each sandwich (usually with bites taken out of them, for most of their original eaters threw them away in disgust or in jest) shuffle slowly and forlornly onto the stage, as the clients bid madly for them. The degree of sadness of the sandwich is matched by the degree of violence of the bidding, as clients flap paper wildly, hit each other with bidding batons, yell, scream and shout and finally lust noisily and with much saliva, after each dejected sandwich, often disorientated and confused by the avaricious clamour. You, Handbag Nigel, are no better than a sandwich pimp and should be spat on. Don't give me all that mock righteous charity! Give the sandwich back to its rightful owner, who, after all, seems a decent sort. What he did was a long time ago and he's obviously learnt his lesson. I'd like to suggest a Reunite Bill O'Neill with his Sandwich Campaign. Any takers? | |

| Email : handbag_nigel btinternet com | ||
Message: | Dear Bill O'Neill, I am sorry to hear that you have not eaten since 1980. Perhaps I could arrange for some food shipments to Hastings or possibly some soup kitchen vouchers for you. I say this to somehow alleviate the bad news that I will not be returning your sandwich to you for the following two reasons: Reason 1. I am now legally the owner of that sandwich and have a Certificate of Ownership from Christies to prove it. Also, recently, there has been a huge growing market for sandwiches in the Art Collector's World, especially amongst Arab oil sheiks and East Asian businessman. Sandwiches from the period between 1978 and 1982 are particularly sought after. So much so, that a peanut butter sandwich, thrown at The Sex Pistols in 1977, did not even reach its reserve price of £3, whereas a crustless strawberry jam sandwich made from Cranks wholemeal bread with a light smattering of poppy seed, that caught Elvis Costello full in the eye in 1980, exceeded even the most optimistic expectations when it sold for £3,700 two weeks ago. So you can see that the trend in recent auction prices laughs at the £530 I paid for your sandwich. Nonetheless, I paid alot of money for that sandwich and consequently I am not willing to part with it. If I were to sell, I don't think you'd be in a position to buy it back. Reason 2. I have spoken to the sandwich and it says it does not want to go back to you. It is prepared to meet up with you for a short chat, but you must realise that you were quite beastly to it back then, and it is very nervous, even intimidated, about meeting you again. I will try my best to get it see you for longer and maybe spend the day with you, possibly on the South Downs with a nice pub lunch thrown in, but much more than that, I fear will be impossible. It is clearly so unhappy about seeing you again that it has insisted that, if such a meeting were to happen, that I be present to oversee matters. My big question though is: Why? Why did you have to throw it? I mean, all you had to do was eat it. But, oh no, you had to go and throw it, didn't you? And by doing that, you essentially undermined the whole psychological fabric of that sandwich's existence - basically you called into question its sandwichliness. You made it feel insecure about its sandwichuality, leaving it doubting it was a real sandwich. You made it feel inadequate, prompting it to ask itself, "Was it really not good enough to eat?" And you induced a full collapse of its self-esteem, causing it to the reach the crushing conclusion that it was not worth anything in culinary or nutritional terms. And here, it must be said that the target of your sandwich assault, the band, Smeggy and the Cheesybits, are also partly responsible for this sandwich's self-loathing. Having been thrown at this noisy puking outfit, the sandwich landed on the floor, only then to be totally ignored by the band, causing arguably more emotional damage to the sandwich's self-worth than you had already caused. No, I can understand why that sandwich does not wish to meet you, let alone go back to you. You see, by throwing that half-eaten sandwich at some flea-bitten band from Brighton, you really were causing that sandwich a great deal of psychological trauma. A sandwich's raison d'etre is to be eaten. To put it more philosophically, I am edible therefore I am. Now, you start launching a sandwich as a projectile and you set up an incredible, but mouth-watering mixture of mental confusions, contradicting emotions and psychological tensions within the psyche of that sandwich. Its primal urge tells it to prepare itself to be eaten, and yet there it is flying through the air for the purpose of mirth and merriment at the expense of some band. It has essentially become a clown, whose only purpose is to make people laugh. This is all very well and is very funny, I agree, when the thrown sandwich connects with a member of a band and causes them some inconvenience or, even better, some hugely embarrassing discomfort (in fact, in this sort of case, the throwing is fully justified, even required, especially if it results in a temper tantrum, since the damage caused to the sandwich is outweighed by the vastly greater pleasure of a large number of people on seeing the huge embarrassment damage caused to the band). But a sandwich's self-esteem is built on its awareness of its more worthy function of providing sustenance for human beings. If this purpose is denied, the mental imbalance in the sandwich's psyche causes what psychologists call a Self-Oozing Breakdown, where all its self-respect and potency seeps out of it. A sandwich is a simple being and cannot cope with the philosphical contradiction. Essentially, in clinical terms, you have 'negated' it, which always leads to a total malaise. A sandwich in this state will not pick itself up or stand up for itself. It will just lie around allowing itself to be stepped on continually by the customers of the pub or dancehall. Fortunately, Lord Exeter managed to rescue this one and add it to his Fine Art Sandwich collection. What I'm trying to say in a very long but justified way, is that, in 1980, by that simple act of hurling that poor half-eaten sandwich, you did untold damage to it and it really would not be a good thing for you to have the sandwich back - not good for the sandwich, and, I think deep down, you know it would not be good for you. I mean, could you really cope with all the deep feelings that would be unleashed in you, if you were to be reunited with your sandwich? I mean, the guilt alone could be very dangerous, but the feelings of longing and pleasure would be so overwhelming that I fear for the safety of Hastings. If you quickly nip upstairs and fetch your copy of The Psychiatric Rehabilitation of Light Snacks Journal [ Number 5 / August, 2006. pp. 245-307] and reread the 2006 case, when an estranged ham and mustard sandwich was returned to its owner John Stratton, after a separation of seven years, you will no doubt remember that Stratton had a total breakdown, after massive euphoria turned into self-loathing. And all he had done was mislaid the sandwich seven years before. He never used it as a weapon of jollity and amusement! In labouring the point, I don't think you can understand the stress and emotional strains that you caused in that sandwich in that simple act of throwing it. A SANDWICH IS NOT MEANT TO FLY; IT IS MEANT TO SLIDE. I know that, God knows that, everyone knows that - except for you, it seems. Since then, the sandwich has had to deal with crippling schizophrenic issues, but after much therapy, has managed to pull through. I've had to pick up the pieces. Do you know how tedious it is listening to a sandwich pour out its rage, traumas, fears, insecurities and feelings of inadequate confusion hour after hour, for months on end? I sometimes wish I hadn't bought the bloody thing, and therefore I really do want people to understand that: SANDWICHES ARE FOR LIFE, NOT JUST FOR A QUICK FLING IN A PUB. P.S. I am not interested in finding a culprit to blame (other than you, Smeggy and the Cheesybits, Hastings Pier and all the punters who attended that gig]; all I want to do is publicise the fragile psyche of the common sandwich and prevent this sort of sandwich abuse in the future. All my love, Handbag Nigel. P.P.S. Clockwork Criminals had a good jangly sound - great classic stuff. You should've done some gigs in Portsmouth - I never went outside the city limits, you see.

I swear it's absolutley kosher. Well except for the index of indifference which is pure bollox (I can't even remember how I worked that out) but even that is automatic I don't interfere with it. The chart positions and the top ten songs are based on real downloads. Cats Like Plain Crisps are the most popular band by a considerable margin and have been since I started recording the downloads (though you've got bear in mind that their songs are probably being downloaded mostly by girls who obviously don't realise that you don't have to download a song everytime you want to listen to it [it's genetic don't you know {even if you are an Online Teaching and Learning Manager and responsible for online pedagogy(sic) in its broadest sense (there I go, nesting brackets again)}]). But all joking aside Cats Like Plain Crisps get downloaded every day which is more {a lot more} than you can say for some bands [Rob]. Though to be fair to the Be-Bop Dustbins I have just realised that their download page hasn't been working for the last I don't-know-how-long [and to be fair to the downloding massive, either nobody told me or nobody knew]. the only underhand dodgyness I'm aware of is the fact that Rob keeps producing more and more Waltons tapes but refuses to let me post any more dustbins tapes. This is an obvious ploy to lower the Waltons' average downloads to a point where they drop below the Dustbins [it's working]. | ||

I will willingly post a picture of it in its mahogany presentation case if you wish, or else you could visit my Travelling Sandwich Museum, when it comes to Portsmouth later in the year. Always happy to oblige, Handbag Nigel. | |
I'm sorry I can't type I'm laughing too much. Don't worry it's just because I've been taking the 5th (or was it the 7th) most dangerous drug in the world Next Sandwich | ||

Message: | David, I forgot to ask, who the f**k is this Tony Cornell bloke, looking to thrashhhhhh my boy. Did I know him at some point? Or did I perhaps arrogantly ignore him on some occasion, when all he was trying to do was be friendly and all I could think about was what a great STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRR I was, daaaaaarling!!!! Yeah, thinking about it, that may well have been what happened. Anyway, I don't care who he is or what I did............except, who IS he (and do I care?) | |
Tony is only trying uphold standards in written English I'm sure that there is nothing personel intended in his comments made about your son. He is, however, a raving homosexual. | ||

Message: | Hello David, I'm afraid I'm a little tired, and so feel unable to tackle the marking of your work until tomorrow, however I thought it only fair to let you know that, even after the brief readthrough that I've managed, it's quite clear that substantial rewriting will be neccessary. Notwithstanding this, please be aware that any and all further material that you submit to us will be defaecated upon with all due diligence and haste. Yours etc. J.

Thank you for your prompt reply. I will pass it on to our re-cycling department immediately. | ||

Message: | No David, that's a Cabal - C-A-B-A-L...........your command of English grammar, spelling, and syntax is sadly little better than that of my youngest son Ralph, who I understand corresponded with you on this "website" on a regular basis. No more, however. Last week, Ralph was sentenced to death by our Ridler Family Court and executed, for walking upon a flower bed in the garden, and his sister Hermione imprisoned in the family dungeon for life, for having wantonly spread too much butter upon her scone. Their Father has spoken. PS. Has your life REALLY become THIS EMPTY? | |
Dear Sir, If you had read my comment carefully you would have noticed that I suggested two alternate spellings for your "son's" mumblings. Firstly C-A-B-L-E and secondly C-A-B-A-L. the first I spelt directly and the second I referenced by it's definition. Both words differ by one character from "Ralph's" scrawlings and yet you seem to simplemindedly focus on the second whilst ignoring the first. Is this because you are a stupid talent less c**t? | ||

Message: | Dear Mr C-Bits, I'd like to be the first to support you wholeheartedly in your sending of the young Ridler to his room. The sooner he's sent upstairs to think about his literary naughtiness, the better. All those in favour, say Aye. | |
Aye | ||

Message: | Only recording was the Brighton college gig, and i think only one photo of Smeggy in the anchor pub Hastings. The venue you mention was probably the Carlisle pub - i remember that one and when you nearly didn't turn up for a gig on Hastings pier. Happy memories. | |
No we turned up for the gig it was Smeggy that was late. Fortunately Nicky and the Dots kindly made way for us. I remember that gig as being the first time anybody threw a sandwich at us, it was half eaten too, cheese and tomato. Next Sandwich | ||

Message: | I too have eaten most of my sticky out bits after discovering cheesey page. Being the ripe old age of 47 and hailing from Hastings we use to regularly follow the smeg gang loaded up with flour, eggs and foam. There was nothing better than a smeggy gig - i think other bands on at the gig wondered what the hell was happening as the venues took the appearence of a huge cookery programme as flour n eggs were liberally spread on everyone - in fact if we had brought milk i'm sure we could have had pancakes apres-gig. i went on to play bass for Charlie and crims (Clockwork crims) and for a laugh have a look at the myspace page. Anyway i too recorded the art college gig on my old amstrad tape recorded (it weighed a ton) but i think the quality is equally e or f - shame. Its great to be able to download some of the songs - cheers. | |
I have fond (if slightly bizzarre) memories of Hastings. Especially playing at that upstairs club in a carpark on the front. Where Smeggy was so pissed that he only made it half way through the first number. I don't spose you've got any other tapes do you? Or photos of the Cheesybits? | ||

Yes Rob's got a tape of that first gig but he seems reluctant to let me post it on this site (too embarrassing he says) but I'll talk him round. He said he would do you a copy though. I've got some Django ratix stuff which I will post eventually (honest). Re: Standing in - don't be silly. | ||

Message: | Have got ant Django ratix stuff from the first gig at Brooke House? Rob wrote the lyrics on the same night of the gig in the Fleming Arms. Love Kevin | |
I don't understand. What's an ant got to do with it? I can't help thinking there's a pronoun or two missing from your message as well. If your'e saying you have a tape of Django Ratix's first gig then give me a copy and I'll put it up. But what I would really like to hear is a tape of the gig when your guitarist didn't turn up and you roped in a certain Mr Cheesybits to play for you. | ||
