Hi ‘Spanner’ Fans - me again!!!

“Everyone here at ‘Spanners’ H.Q. has been both visibly moved and totally overwhelmed by the volume of emails being received. Three arrived by carrier pigeon from ‘Blaencelyn Post Office’ yesterday and another one just over an hour ago!!

If you are fortunate enough to obtain a copy of our DVD single and video (which has already achieved cult status as a collector’s item) and like it, we would love to hear from you - even if you don’t like it we would still love to hear from you!! - here are just a few examples.”

From ‘Spotty’ - Blaencelyn

“My owner and I were sat outside the ‘Pentre’ watching the sun set over Cardigan Bay when those ‘Fat Spanners’ started up. The bass player counted to seven in broken French and then all hell broke loose. Every flea on my body abandoned ship. I really can’t recommend them too highly. Imagine what they could do for one of the local sheep with liver fluke?”

From ‘Anon’ - Tresaith

“Really interested to read the “blog” - absolutely “gutted” I can’t make the 30th but please reserve a DVD for me anyway!”

From Captain ‘Careless’ (now retired) - HMP Aberystwyth

“We were cruising at an altitude of just over 30,000 feet with an unusually strong headwind when the intensity of sound just hit us. The melody seemed to pervade the entire aircraft and it wasn`t long before one of the cabin crew informed me, in no uncertain terms, that the passengers were getting restless and demanding that I land to investigate. This was against all aviation protocol, but I was six months from retirement and I just thought smack me with a freshly caught Micky Beechey mackerel, we are going down!!”

“We carried out a text book emergency landing, with only minimal casualties, at the now disused airfield in Aberporth and all surviving passengers on board just headed for the beat. When we arrived in Llangrannog the place was a seething mass of bodies gyrating to the hypnotic rhythm of those naughty ‘Spannerettes’. The memory of that evening will stay with me forever and is the only thing that has kept myself and my co-pilot going during our two year enforced stay at her majesty’s pleasure ....... long live the ‘Fat Spanners’!!’’

From Tesco.com.
