"X FACTOR WAS FUN LAST WEEK"

HEY FRIENDLIES,

HOW DO?

I'VE BEEN A VERY BUSY BOY.....
NO DAYS OFF FOR THE LAST 6 WEEKS....(AND LOVING IT)
SO MANY PLANS....SO MANY IRONS IN THE FIRE....
SO MUCH I CAN'T TELL YOU ABOUT ; )

WITHIN MONTHS I'M ABOUT TO EMBARK ON THE BUSIEST
PERIOD OF MY CAREER TO DATE AND I CAN'T WAIT TO GET IT STARTED....

EVERYTHING SEEMS NEW........

I'VE TAKEN THE IDEA OF FRIENDLY GIGS A BIT FUTHER...BUT YOU'LL HAVE TO WAIT A BIT TO FIND OUT....SORRY ; )

FARRELL'S UP AND RUNNING AND DOING VERY WELL.....LOVING IT.....
I'M LEARNING A DIFFERENT TRADE......OLD DOG NEW TRICKS.....
WITH THE AMAZING BEN DICKENS COMING OVER FROM BURBERRY
I FEEL LIKE I DID WHEN WHEN ME AND GUY CHAMBERS STARTED WRITING SONGS TOGETHER.,....EXCITING TIMES....

RE NEW ALBUM...I THINK A WHILE AGO I SAID THE NEW ALBUM SOUNDS LIKE ESCAPOLOGY
I'LL HAVE TO REVISE THAT....THE NEW ALBUM SOUNDS LIKE NON OF THE OLD ONES....
BUT I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO WHAT YOU WANT FROM ME ...
YOU WANT GUITAR/PIANO/HEART ON MY SLEEVE STUFF...OK...YOU GOT IT....
I MADE THE LAST COUPLE OF ALBUMS FOR ME AND HAD A GREAT TIME DOING IT
BUT MY RAISON D'ETRE (WORLD DOMINATION) WAS MISSING....IT'S BACK

I KNOW IT SEEMS LIKE AGES UNTIL ANYTHING WILL HAPPEN...
BUT IT FEELS LIKE 5 MINUTES AGO I WAS SAYING "THIS TIME NEXT YEAR I'LL BE ON STAGE WITH TAKE THAT"
THAT CAME AND WENT QUICKLY DIDN'T IT?

X FACTOR WAS FUN LAST WEEK....NICE TO GO TO A TV STUDIO AND NOT BE WORKING
IT FELT LIKE THE LAST DAY OF TERM BEFORE THE HOLIDAYS....GAZ WAS ON GREAT FORM
HE'S THE MOST UNFLAPPABLE MAN IN THE BUSINESS ...I'VE LEARNT SO MUCH FROM HIM
HE'S TEFLON GAZ NOTHING STICKS...HE JUST GETS ON WITH ENJOYING HIMSELF...
..
IT WAS NICE TO GET REACQUAINTED WITH MARCUS TOO.....GREAT SINGER VERY HANDSOME AND A LOVELY PERSON TO BOOT....
OH TALKING OF REACQUAINTED OLLY MURS WAS THERE...WHAT A PERFORMANCE WITH THE MUPPETS!.....
I TOLD HIM HE'S A BONAFIDE PROPER POPSTAR NOW....I'M SURE ME AND HIM WILL BE SPENDNG MORE TIME TOGETHER AT SOME POINT....

I ALSO GOT TO HAVE A CHAT WITH THE BEAUTIFUL KELLY ROWLAND ...WHAT A KIND SPIRIT SHE'S GOT...SHE'S A GOODY.....

LOUIS GAVE ME A HARD TIME FOR WEARING SUNGLASSES INDOORS AND RIGHTLY HE SHOULD ....
THE INDOOR SUNGLASS WEARER IS A TWAT....BUT I HAD BIG BLACK JET LAG RINGS UNDER MY EYES.....
SO I'LL TAKE TWAT FOR AN EVENING .....WE TALKED JEDWARD AND I SENT THEM MY BEST WISHES...
WE ALSO TALKED WESTLIFE FOR A WHILE...THE LADS ARE ON THEIR LAST TOUR...WHAT A CAREER THEY'VE HAD...
(JUST GOES TO SHOW HOW LONG TAKE THAT COULD HAVE STAYED TOGETHER ,,.,.,,)
THEY'RE PROPER GRAFTERS...I'M PROUD OF THEM...SOAK IT ALL IN LADS...

THE NEXT DAY FOUND ME AT STRICTLY.....MY MATE ROBBIE SAVAGE SAID COME DOWN SO I DID....
I CAN'T REMEMBER THE LAST TIME I'VE HAD A COMPULSION TO HAVE MY PICTURE TAKEN WITH ANYBODY..
BUT THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT SUE POLLARD....SHE ASKED ME ''IS IT FOR YOUR MUM?''
NO SUE IT WAS FOR ME....I'LL TREASURE IT....THANK YOU....

I HAD A GREAT CHAT WITH JASON DONAVON IN BETWEEN REHEARSALS TOO....WHAT A TOP BLOKE

ROBBIE DID REALLY WELL HE WAS SO COMMITTED. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING MORE OF HIM ON TELLY. HE'S A GREAT CHARACTER
AND SUCH A WARM GUY... HE WANTED ME TO THANK YOU FOR ANY SUPPORT YOU THREW HIS WAY....

I'M GOING TO TRY AND GET A RADIO RUDEBOX READY FOR CHRISTMAS.....
I DID SAY THE NEXT ONE WOULD BE JUST BOYS.....BUT THAT DOESNT SEEM RIGHT FOR A CRIMBO SPECTACULAR....
SO THE GANG WILL BE BACK....

MUCH LOVE FOLKS....
I'LL LET YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON WHEN I CAN....
UNTIL THEN,...THANKS  FOR GROWING OLD WITH  ME...YOU KEPT YOUR PROMISE
NOW IT'S TIME I LIVED UP TO MY PART OF THE BARGAIN....

ROBERT
