Trevor Macdonald presenting the National TV Awards last night:

"Some people think that because I'm only on TV for half an hour a night, I spend the rest my time at home watching daytime TV. However, those people are forgetting all the time I spend hanging around snooker halls."

now there's a plan

can i just say that in the unlikely event of mr mcdonald, his friends, family or lawyers being avid ilxors, the above post was meant as a light-hearted jest and in no way is it being suggested that mr mcdonald spends any of his free time around the aforesaid.

oh but what a lovely image

blueski, Wednesday, 16 October 2002 12:32 (twenty-three years ago)

Did he really say this? I have new found respect.

N. (nickdastoor), Wednesday, 16 October 2002 13:32 (twenty-three years ago)

Yes he did.

So you understand it, at all?

Graham (graham), Wednesday, 16 October 2002 13:34 (twenty-three years ago)

Yes, yes I do.

N. (nickdastoor), Wednesday, 16 October 2002 13:39 (twenty-three years ago)

spew

Not really a laugh-out-loud gag, but good I suppose coming from someone who is percieved as so straight. As for the meaning, try something along the lines of "People think that when I'm not on TV I just waste my time. But they forget about all the time I spend " I'm sure N. will correct me if I'm wrong.......

eh? Don't think it liked the puntuation. Try: "People think that when I'm not on TV I just waste my time. But they forget about all the time I spend (insert something synonymous with wasting time here)".

Ahthangyew.

Wasn't there a bit of a fuss sometime ago about Trev being a bit of a cad in the 70's? Going out to late night drinking establishments and the like.
Can't find anything to support this, but I was telling my girlfriend about his sordid past just the other night - so we got the gag. I think.

Simeon (Simeon), Wednesday, 16 October 2002 14:06 (twenty-three years ago)

Wow. Drinking late at night. Such shenanigans.

Andrew (enneff), Wednesday, 16 October 2002 14:30 (twenty-three years ago)

Trevors smokes de 'erb, big time
