My plan has got a bit wilder. Not only am I going to be handing my notice in next Monday, but I’m also going to move to Austin TX for two months and be a musician and play for tips! I’m waiting for my friends to tell me I’m crazy, but they keep saying - do it Lou!

I’ve given myself a week to either get sensible or buy a ticket…

So Spurs drinks are out? Come to Stoke…

Better not be. Refund calculations owed included in your Austin move thoughts Lullaby Lou??

Don’t worry Bucks, have got a two month notice period, so would be able to leave till mid-Jan. Then I’d be back before end of season!

Party we were gonna have round mine for Arsenal away might be an issue tho…

Boo!

Please try and work exclusively with musicians called Richard or moonlighting detectives.

Then you can be Coxford Lou and the Swinging Dicks.

What instrument do you play, Lou? Will you be like Beth Orton?

Or Joe?

Or Beth Ditto?

Given it’s Fatso asking, there’s got to be an insult coming if I answer the question… So I’m just going to pretend I’ve not seen it!

Is it the Harp?

Recorder, Bucks.

With tambourine too, right?

Is this the plot to an Elvis film?

You’re gonna pick up your recorder and travel between bars, living off tips and awaiting that big break?

No, but I need someone who can play one. Fancy joining me?

Do it. I’ve given up a couple of jobs with no obvious future plans.

One, weirdly, to spend a summer in Texas. Lubbock…Buddy Holly and all that.

The other resulted in 2 years in Mexico. Only one life…

If still out of work in January, yeah why not. Can play a snare drum too.

On further inspection I feel the content of that video may be irrelevant and, indeed, inappropriate. It is no way meant to be a reflection on you and/or your predicament, Lou.

That’s what I keep thinking - only one life! What’s the worst that can happen.

Your trips sound pretty amazing - got any good stories to tell?

Love the Grindermen, but I’m definitely not after pussy…
