Farrant Will Grant "Fan" Request

Dogged by continuing controversy over his hair colour, former Highgate vampire hunter David Farrant has agreed to meet an obsessive American fan known only as "Carol" who recently stated her intention to travel all the way to London from her small Midwestern town in the US in order to clip a lock of his hair.

In an entry on her blog, she cites the cryptic reason behind her journey: "I think he's a phony who has to dye."

"I suggested she be waiting outside my flat late at night when I come home from the pub and have shears or perhaps a sharp knife with her" advised the hapless Farrant, adding, "She also asked if I could autograph a book for her, Catcher In The Rye if I remember correctly, though for what reason I cannot imagine."

Carol most likely thinks "Catcher In the Rye" comes in a bottle.

David Farrant said...

My 'fans' sometimes go to extremes sometimes, I admit; but maybe all she needs is a good 'talking to'.

We'll see anyway . . . if she turns up!

I don't have a blog...

just because something is under my name--doesn't mean I have an active managed blog--I do not; it's a strange mistake--

I have never seen Carol's Blog, Cat.
Can you send me a private link?

Thanks,

David

Carol farted: "just because something is under my name--doesn't mean I have an active managed blog--I do not; it's a strange mistake--"

LOLOLOL! That makes so much sense Carooool!

Carol was on a crack binge again. She was posting while impaired and forgot about it.

Caroooool! Do ya have a passport? Tell us about your travel plans. David's London is in England, not Canada.

How's tricks along the waterfront of Lake Michigan? Business slow tonight?

David Farrant said...

Probably because it was found,Cat.
But knowing you, you'd probably have kept a copy of it!

The 'bonky one' must clearly be desperate if he's trying to convince people I dye my hair.

I suspect it is because his hair has for long been whitish grey, and he is just jealous because my hair iis still natural!

How childish can you get?!?

But he hasn't exactly got an adult's mentality!

I deleted what was suppose to be a "blog" and, Hogg, I and the bishop were all next-door neighbors there; I didn't like that, anyway, there's already toooo many of these--it's hard to keep up...but this here one "cracks" me up

F_____ what's with the "fan" thing ??
and I haven't been around because I got inspired to do some of my research--then I bury myself in it

and, yeah, I sure do plan on visiting London....

actually, daave....I'm praying that the Lord will fly me there...so I can snip your dyed hair
the reason I said anything is because YOU started talking about it right here on this site....don't you remember I said to you, "what's up with the dyed hair thing?"

OH CAROL,

You said [quote] . . .

Listen, my dear Lady . . . I did NOT invite you - you invited yourself. There is a difference!

I took up your influenced challenge (by the 'bonky one', I presume) because I have nothing to hide!

Bonky is the one who used to dye his hair Sweetie - not me. In fact, at one stage he used to use peroxide on it, but this soon resulted in his hair falling out, which is why he quickly gave that up! Then he started to dye his hair blonde to disguise his white hair - and I have all the colour photographs to prove it!!

You have been well and truly 'duped' sweetheart. Your 'bishop' is much older than you think!!

Probably old enough to be your grandfather, in fact!

Not that that seems to worry you.

But yes, if ever you make London (in the UK) you can still have a snip of my hair for analaysis. Not so sure about a 'lock' as I don't want you putting this under your pillow and 'putting curses' on it!

Anyway, nice to see you back at last. Trust you have now fully recovered from your 'rest'!

And no doubt may be meeting you next year!

In the meantime, just try and behave yourelf!!

David Farrant
