‘Trans Europe Express’ – Kraftwerk
More bloody exams and sod all else! I hate them! Bastards!
Earlier this year, George said he’d get me a new stereo for my birthday. It hasn’t happened.
That Ro-Busters book my Gran said she’d ordered at Christmas still hasn’t arrived, either!
A sideways skull with comical eyeballs…
A bespectacled baldy with flared collar and checked kipper tie…



Now – travel through 6 months of Ritcherd’s life…
ADRIAN MOLE WAS A FAIRY TALE!

MUSIC BY TEN OUT OF TEN AND WALK IN THE TWILIGHT
IN ‘SHITTY’™ STEREO
Produced by: A. Twat
Directed by: A. Cunt
‘Real family entertainment’ The Times
‘…copes with adolescence brilliantly’ The Mirror
‘Shit’ The Daily Star
‘I’ve forgotten what it was about’ The Sun

INSPIRATION
INTRIGUE
A long-chinned Spock with a cat-like nose…
A cat-faced, leonine humanoid saying: Life!
Life!
Me, without a head, in lemon short-sleeved shirt (untucked), grey canvas slacks, white socks and black slip-on shoes…
Someone much cooler with long, quiffed hair, white rimmed shades, a spiky shouldered leather waist-coat, a long grey top with a leather belt over it, stripey drainpipe trousers and big, big baseball boots with prominent laces (Mike McMahon style)…
Exciting, isn’t it?
RITCHERD: West Walton is crap!
JABBA: Pontefract isn’t too brilliant…
God! Aren’t teachers just bloody queer and gay!
OLD DIARY ENTRIES…
This time 4 years ago:
‘I bought Smash Hits for the Adam Ant cover…

…It also featured stuff about Hazel O’Connor and had the words to ‘Will You’, plus words to ‘Ghost Town’ by The Specials.’
This time 2 years ago:
‘We were supposed to be going to Toyah’s birthday party at Aunty Vi’s today, but she didn’t have one cos Martin, Jeff and Kelly are staying with Grandma and Granddad Pritchard at the caravan in Barmston. I got Doctor Who Monthly issue 78.’
