DEAR FRIENDS/

RE THE PIC IN THE GARDEN.....

IT WASN'T TAKEN BY ME.BUT BY A CLOSE FRIEND
 CALLED MICHELE..A VERY SPECIAL PERSON INDEED.....
THERE ARE MANY LIKE THIS....

IT'S MY HOME IN THE UK...
THE LENS WAS VERY CLEAN....
IT WASN'T BEHIND A WINDOW
IT WASN'T RAINING,SLEETING OR SNOWING ....
IT WAS WINTER TIME...IS POLLEN AROUND THEN?
AND I CAN ASSURE YOU IT'S NOT PHOTOSHOPPED
TOO MANY FAKES ABOUT AND I DON'T WISH TO ADD TO THE LIST....

RE- REQUEST FOR ANSWERS FROM ME....
WITH ALL THE LOVE IN THE WORLD...
I SIMPLY CAN'T ANSWER THEM ALL...
SO IF YOU DON'T GET ONE….I'M SORRY BUT THAT'S THE WAY IT IS....
YOU HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING WRONG....

MY CHOOSING PROCESS HAS TO BE RANDOM....
BECAUSE THAT'S THE WAY MY BRAIN WORKS....
IF THE COMMENT IS TOO LONG....I LOSE FOCUS....
I SKIP COMMENTS SOMETIMES JUST TO GET TO THE END.....

YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT KIND OF CONCENTRATION LEVEL
IT TAKES FOR ME TO GET TO ALL OF YOU....I AM AS I'VE SAID BEFORE
VERY DYSLEXIC....SO IT'S JUST IMPOSSIBLE....

A WORD TO THE WISE....AND WITH LOVE....
POSTING THE SAME THING MORE THAN ONCE
GETS ME SKIPPING......ASKING "WHY I HAVEN'T RESPONDED TO YOU"
IS LIKELY TO FILL ME WITH GUILT....AND I DON'T LIKE GUILT.....I SAY THIS ALL WITH LOVE

I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A BRAIN THAT CAN SORT EVERYBODY OUT HERE...
BUT I HAVEN'T TREAD GENTLY WITH ME ...I CAN ONLY DO WHAT I CAN DO....

SO FAR AND WITH THE ODD DELETE HERE AND THERE FROM OUR BASTIONS OF THE BLOGG....(MODERATORS X)
THIS PLACE HAS BEEN FULL OF LOVE AND LONG MAY IT CONTINUE....

THIS IS AN EXTENSION OF ME….THEREFORE IT IS MY HOUSE....AND IN MY HOUSE I HAVE TO FEEL SAFE...

DO ME A FAVOUR FOLKS....IF YOU SEE PEOPLE ASKING QUESTIONS THAT I HAVE ALL READY ANSWERED
CAN YOU ANSWER THEM FOR ME...?NO POINT IN GOING OVER OLD GROUND.....

I SEE PEOPLE ASKING IF THE BOYS WILL BE DOING THE SAME......

GARY'S GOT 3 KIDS AND HAS BEEN DOING X-FACTOR AUDITIONS ON DAYS OFF
HE'S WORKING HARDER THAN ANY OF US...

MARK'S JUST MOVED INTO A NEW HOME AND TRAVELS BACK THERE EVERY NIGHT
TO HELP EMMA....

HOWARD HAS HIS TWO KIDS WITH HIM ALWAYS AND ON DAYS OFF TRAVELS BACK TO GERMANY
TO DROP HIS LITTLE ONE OFF THEN GOES BACK AND PICKS HER UP....

JAY? WELL JAY DOESN'T UNDERSTAND COMPUTERS....
THOUGH I WISH HE COULD SEE THE LOVE PEOPLE HAVE FOR HIM.....

THAT LEAVES ME....YOUR INSOMNIAC ,CHILDLESS,CHILD WITH ADDICTIVE TENDENCIES...
AND YES THIS A NEW ADDICTION

GO EASY ON THE BOYS…IT'S TAKING EVERYTHING WE'VE GOT TO BE IN FRONT OF 80THOUSAND A NIGHT
THEN RUSH BACK AND TO BE DADDIES....

I SEE A FEW OF YOU HAVE BEEN TELLING PEOPLE THAT I'VE ANSWERED YOU....
MY ADVICE IS KEEP IT TO YOURSELF....
HALF WON'T BE BOTHERED AND THE OTHER HALF WILL BE ANGRY......
THAT'S PRETTY MUCH WHAT HAPPENED WHEN I JOINED THE BAND FIRST TIME AROUND...
I'D GET HOME AND TELL PEOPLE WHAT I'D BEEN UP TO.....UNLESS THEY ARE YOUR BEST BEST FRIEND...
PEOPLE WILL BE JEALOUS,FRIGHTENED OR THINK YOU'RE BEING A BIG HEAD.....SHARE IT HERE
YOU ARE SAFE....AND PEOLPLE IT HAS TO BE SAFE HERE ,...LOVE ONE ANOTHER....
I TRIED TO DO THIS IN THE 90'S AND IT FELL TO SHIT ..WITH JEALOUSY
AND BACK STABBING EACH OTHER......IT LEAD TO THE CHAT ROOM BEING CLOSED DOWN....DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN AGAIN...
IT WAS A MASSIVE TURN OFF.....SO MUCH SO IT'S TAKEN ME 12/13 YEARS TO COME BACK....
IF YOU WANT AN EXAMPLE OF WHY "OUR" RELATIONSHIP HAS BEEN FRACTURED......
I CAN ONLY POINT TO THAT .....

IF YOU DO GET JEALOUS ...NOTICE IT ..THANK IT AND LET IT GO....DON'T BRING IT HERE....
I WANT TO LOVE YOU ..I WANT YOU TO LOVE EACH OTHER...TO HELP EACH OTHER AS MUCH AS YOU CAN....
IF YOU CAN'T SPEAK WITH LOVE FIND (AND WITH LOVE I SAY)SOMEWHERE ELSE....

I BELIEVE THERE WAS A LADY THAT WAS LOOKING FOR INTELLECT AND NOT FLUFF....
I AM MADE OF FLUFF MAY I SUGGEST ANOTHER  POPSTAR FOR YOU I THINK YOU MAY FIND WHAT YOU'RE AFTER
HERE  LEONARD COHEN [COMMUNITY] HAPPY HUNTING....

RE.THE NEW ALBUM'S SOUND....I THINK IT'S LIKE ESCAPOLOGY WITH BIG BOY PANTS ON...

@CATHBURFORD..3.33?WOULD I EVER BE A JUDGE  ON X-FACTOR?
I'LL NEVER SAY NEVER...BUT RIGHT NOW….IT'S NOT IN MY PLANS....
I WANT TO BE WITH MY DOGGIES

@JANICEE5264...3.28...SO IS SMOKING 30 SILK CUT A DAY AND STAYING UP FOR 28 HOURS STRAIGHT..OH
AND SO IS EATING GRAPES...AND NOT WARMING UP....SO IS DRINKING COLD ANYTHING....SO I DO ALL OF THESE....
SINGING TEACHERS?WASTE OF MONEY..YOU EITHER CAN OR YOU CAN'T..THOSE THAT CAN'T ...TEACH...AND HAVE A BIT OF A CHIP ON THEIR SHOULDERS
ABOUT NOT REALLY DOING IT....GOD BLESS YOU IF YOU ARE ONE AND GOOD LUCK...BUT GO EASY ON YOUR "STUDENT"
SINGING IS MEANT TO BE FUN...END OF......I DIDN'T GET WHERE I AM TODAY BY BY BLAH BLAH BLAH.........\

@UP.HANLEY.DUCK....I'VE ALSO BEEN READING THAT SOME PEOPLE THINK IT MIGHT BE  MY "AGENT" (WHICH SOUNDS SO 80'S)
WRITING THESE BLOGGS.....ASK YOURSELF THIS DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT IS THE TRUTH? I WOULDN'T DO THAT TO YOU....
IF THAT WAS THE CASE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN DONE YEARS AGO.....AND BESIDES IF NOT ME WHO THE FUCK KNOWS ME THIS WELL..?
THERE ARE THINGS ON HERE I HAVEN'T TOLD ANYONE....YOU HAVE TO TRUST YOUR HEART

THERE WAS A LOVELY POST FROM SOMEONE WHO IS A MASSIVE GARY FAN CAN'T FIND THE POST AGAIN...
SO WHILE I'M THINKING ON...
YOUR WORDS BROUGHT A RAY TO MY HEART AND A SMILE TO MY FACE .....
FOR THOSE THAT DIDN'T READ IT ....
IN SHORT....
WASN'T A FAN OF MINE...DIDN'T LIKE ME FOR HOW I TREATED GAZ.CAME TO THE GIG.
AND CHANGED HER MIND...
I ADMIRE YOU FOR YOUR PROTECTIVE FEELINGS TOWARDS THE GREAT MAN
AND I'M SURE THAT ENERGY HELPED HIM THROUGH HIS DARKEST MOMENTS
AND ON HALF BEHALF OF HIM AND ME I THANK YOU......

LOOK...I WAS MEAN...UNFORGIVING..AND VERY ANGRY
IT ALL EQUALLED HURT REALLY FUCKING HURT AND FUCKING HURT ALL OVER AGAIN...

THERE ARE THREE SIDES TO A STORY ,...LIKE I SAID IN SHAME
MINE.HIS AND THE TRUTH.,..WE ALL PLAYED OUR PARTS .....AND ALL IS FORGIVEN....
I TRULY LOVE THE MAN..ALWAYS DID...WHY DO YOU THINK I WAS SO HURTFUL TOWARDS HIM..?
I WANTED HIM TO FEEL MY PAIN...

BUT LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THAT MAN,.....

HE HAS SINGLE HANDEDLY PUT ME BACK ON TRACK....
A LOT OF THE ENERGY I NOW HAVE IS DOWN TO HIM....
HE IS THE CAPTAIN OF THIS SHIP AND I'VE LEARNED SO MUCH
FROM HIS TUTORING ..I'VE LEARNT TO LOVE MUSIC AGAIN
AND HE'S SHOWN ME A COURSE THAT I MUST SAIL ON MY NEXT ENDEAVOUR
I'D BE DOGGY PADDLING IN THE ARBOUR WITHOUT HIM

IF ANYONE CAN FEEL JUSTIFIED WITH FEELING CONTEMPT FOR THE PRESS
AND THE NAY SAYERS IT'S HIM...AND HE DOESN'T......
LIKE I SAY...I'VE LEARNT SO MUCH .....

SOME MORE PICTURES FROM MICHELE ...
BE KIND....SHE'S ONE OF THE MOST LOVELY,SPIRITUAL PEOPLE YOU WILL EVER MEET ,....

CAN'T YOU JUST FIND IT IN YOUR HEARTS TO BE KIND TO MY LOT OVER HERE?
AND "MY LOT" IN TURN CAN YOU NOT DO THE SAME...?
I'VE PICKED ON YOU DURING THIS TOUR...I MEAN NO OFFENCE
IT'S ALL PART OF THE PANTO.....
I HAD A RIGHT GO AT ONE WOMAN ONE NIGHT ....

SAME AREA..CLEAN AND SOBER .10PM..WITH ANOTHER THAT WITNESSED THE SAME THING
..NOW, I DON'T BELIEVE, CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF...
IN GHOSTS,UFO'S OR ANYTHING PARANORMAL....
BUT THERE IS A SPACE IN MY MIND FOR ANYTHING TO BE POSSIBLE...
I'VE HAD SO MANY WEIRD ENCOUNTERS THAT IT'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME
TO DISCOUNT THAT "SOMETHING" MIGHT BE HAPPENING....
SOMETHING ALSO MAY NOT BE HAPPENING.....THAT IS VERY
MUCH A POSSIBILITY TOO....
I DO KNOW THIS FOR CERTAIN....IF THEY'RE NOT FROM OUTER SPACE
THEN WE'VE GOT SOME REALLY COOL SHIT THAT WE'RE NOT BEING TOLD ABOUT....

Hello Robbie, how are you? Tuesday at the San Siro was something magnificent, I was expecting a great show but it was definitely more! You have been great but you cabbage! what are you?? Only the great Freddy (Mercury) could move me so, after breaking with the TT has been difficult for all but see you all and keep you in a different light in his eyes is priceless! Now I'm on a kind of depression after the concert (like many other girls) and I hope to you again soon on stage because you are unique, the number one and then that very very sexy very hot guy! I could be me in !!!!! Great Ayda lucky woman, I hope you take care of you because I want my angel to be happy or at least very quiet ... I love you so much ...... my English not perfect .... like the rest of your Italian! but who cares just look into your eyes to understand each other .... with love silvia

Hi Rob...how are you?When your new album comes out?Bye

alfre's picture

I don't know if you read over previous blogs with comments but hope you see this.... having read the above blog again without skimming over....Lovely...your words about Gary, I myself never really took to Gary but I read his book, My Take, and warmed vmuch to him, glad he influenced you, he seems very well balanced and mature beyond his years.... On a lighter note, I don't know/can't remember, if I have read something somewhere in the past, but, I've been expecting you...!! Does that come from Bond film...'aah Mr Bond, I've been expecting you' the one with the white cat poss??? (It was def one with sean) Take carex

WAW O.o.... Gary has 3 children?, And I thought he was gay ... haha, just because Robbie is in doubt ..

Aracely2011's picture

waw, gary tiene 3 hijos, y yo pensé que era Gay.. jajaja, solo queda en duda Robbie.

Hiya, just to say, what an awesome concert 9th July at Wembley, well worth the 15 hour travel and queuing. Best concert ever but come back to Cardiff cos we love you xx

cheryl234's picture

You probably won't read this anymore. But i just wanted to say you are so right! I don't understand why people get angry or jealous. And even be unkind to you. "Friends" don't do that!!!

A nice quote I'd like to share: "Fall in love with some activity, and do it! Nobody ever figures out what life is all about, and it doesn't matter. Explore the world. Nearly everything is really interesting if you go into it deeply enough. Work as hard and as much as you want to on the things you like to do the best. Don't think about what you want to be, but what you want to do. Keep up some kind of a minimum with other things so that society doesn't stop you from doing anything at all." — Richard P. Feynman

staceyTT's picture

Hi Rob, ref the orbs and angels just wondered if you'd read any of Diana Cooper's stuff. She has written a lot about angels and 2012 and has some great orb pictures on her website. I read "Angel Answers" a few years ago and have to admit that a lot of it went straight over my head as some ideas are a bit out there but it was still really interesting. Have taken some really great orb photos myself - have a brilliant one of Archangel Michael over my house. Love Laura and the twinies xx

Paffy's picture

Robster, would like to thank you for the concert. I travelled from belgium to Londen just to see you and the guys perform. I'd loved the old songs, they gave me the chicken pocks it reminded of the moment that I was 15 years old standing in Brussels "forest national" at the 2 nd row just to get a glimp of you. we all get older but saturday the clock stopped ticking for me the moment you came on the stage .... Yess indeed you are mr robbie fucking williams. take care and see you next time xxx

Thanks for sharing the orb gallery, the mists are very mystifying lots of shapes text and it come with love as i can see a big heart in there too!!! The art work is great too was finding a way to leave a comment for Michelle on her work but can not see a way to do so, so I make reference here, the blog page has a real nice vibe to it all and am wondering is anyone else seeing what im seeing in those mists. Did you ever watch the film mists of avalon?

HI DEAR FRIEND!!! EVEN IF YOU DOESN'T EVER REPLY I CONTINUE TO WRITE BECAUSE I LIKE WRITE MY ANSWER...AND I KNOW ALSO THAT YOU'RE DYSLEXIC BUT DON'T WORRY BECAUSE IT ISN'T A DEFECT...I UNDERSTAND YOUR PROBLEMS AND I SEND YOU A BIG KISS FROM ITALY!!!!

Dear Robbie I was at the Take That concert on saturday 9th july your last night at Wembley. You may remember me , I was with my little girl on the front row and you kissed her hand and spoke to me. I just want to thank you for making a fuss of my daughter you made her day. You have no idea what we went through to get her to the front , She is your smallest but biggest fan and she wants me to let you know she loves you very much and she will never forget what an amazing show you and the boys put on that night. Once again thank you very much!! Best wishes Joseph & Molly

This is the best addiction i have! its fab...i check it morning noon and night and if i wake in the night i check it then too. I love reading it all and like having a little insight to your life... Ive been a 'friend' of yours for years and will be for many more to come, through the ups and downs your always awesome and i always find myself smiling and nodding with you when i watch you or listen to you, i totally zone out and love it :) so thanks for that! Huge huggles to you, Ayda and the doggies. stay happy xxx

rackers82's picture

Hello,Robbie! Wow...I must say first thanx for all your blogs and second... Where to start? You sound so mature and confident of yourself! It makes me think you are doing good and better, so it makes me feel happy for you!!! I just want you to know, as I'm a Bulgarian, that you and the guys have so may fans in Bulgaria and I know it doesn't depend on you, but I really hope you'll be able to visit our country one day,so we can see you live! Sometimes I'm a little jealous of reading other people experience from the concerts...So, you have to know - it's no great way from GB!You'll be welcome any time! Take care! P.S. Do not wait too much of having kids! I think it's the only thing is missing! Do not afraid, it's not that scary! :))))It's just amazing!

Hello Rob, Loved this blog more than any other so far, I like the way you openly talk to us about your feelings whether good or bad. I'm still bothered with you always having to explain why you act the way you do, say the things you say, use the words you use. You're a human being, a great one, taking the time to share, give, love his friends, you're offering us hope, poetry with every single word you use, honesty, genuine feelings and this means the world to me. I really don't get why people are getting so distrustful… None of us ever even imagined that it would be possible, you writing back to us almost every night for days!!! But there you are with what you have, those who know you, never doubted, it’s not your kind, if you didn’t wanted to, you wouldn’t even have faked it. As you've said it so well, this is a place where everything is (and has to be) love and only love. This is home, let’s keep it safe. Thank you Robbie, God Bless You for being this lovely to us. Much love as always xxx <3

Adore your music, love your lyrics and listen to your albums every day and hoping that one day you will make another tour to Aussie, Take care of YOU Rob we love ya........

Wow what a long blog entry - love it! It sux that you cant tell what the original message was that you are replying to tho..makes some things hard to follow LOL ANYWAY...I just have to bring this up..totally off track.... I saw years ago an interview you did with ROVE, and you brought up Housewives of New York in it, and how AYda love it...OMG I started watching it last week..and am TOTALLY addicted LOL What a crazy-fun show! These girls crack me up..I cant turn the bloody show off! bahaha I think I want to see a 'The Real Robbie of Robbie Williams' show.. You can include Ayda and the doggies :))

carly4282's picture

I don't get on here often but I'm procrastinating at the moment...and reading the last few blogs - I could see getting addicted to this too! :) I have no question. Just wanted to share thanks for the sweet thoughts and sincerity. Oh and DO keep expressing to Jason Orange how admired he is by many of us out here - he's by all evidence a lovely, fascinating guy & I find oddly validated by your mancrush on him. :P It's like when you say lovely things about The Divine Comedy - I just trust your taste, at this point. Anyhoo, the Progressed EP is fantastic, perfect by me. Keep up the great work!! Much love from the States, hope to soon bask in all of you in your live glory in Munich. Wish me luck. xo

staceyTT's picture

Think your blogs are my new addiction. I feel like a stalker!! (a friendly one maybe?) Sometimes you sound so sad. Question...would you ever do anything like 'Swing when your Winning' again, or like the Albert Hall gig? I have amazing memories of that.

sarah17's picture

Missed being at the amazing TT gigs but I was SO there in spirit. You will all derserve a well earned holiday afterwards! Any more doggies planned? I'm getting a springer soon but finding it hard to choose a name, how do you and Ayda pick a name? Much love xx

Progress Dream Team... I am so proud of you and the boys what you archieved in the last 2 years. Not just because of the success but specially because you, Gary and the others became friends again and resolved the old disputes. It probably cost all of you a bit of yourself but you won the heart of the others. What a great treasure. And specially you and Jay are so extremely lovely on stage. Have seen you twice in Manchester and looking forward to see you again twice in Germany. Say Hello to Jay and Happy Birthday. Give him a kiss on my behalf :). Take Care xxx

PORT VALE IN MUNICH!!! hey Rob, i came with my friend from Edinburgh to see you all three nights in Glasgow, you made my best friends night when you noticed our port vale flag and gave her a kiss, i had to steal one from your sweaty forehead but i didnt mind lol, we are coming to Munich to see you again with my friend Helen who will bring her Toon Flag (she did all nights in Sunderland, a night in Glasgow, Manchester, Birmingham and Wembley), look out for us and if you can, come & take the Port Vale flag as we will be at the B stage so you will notice both the flags. We have loved this tour so so much which is why we felt we had to come to the last night- it will be emotional for all of us. We love you and all the boys xxx

Forgiveness and reconciliation are good for the soul. I loved what you wrote about Gary...it touched me. My Dad left me when I was 2. NO!! My dad left my mum when I was 2 and I had no contact with him until last year when he was diagnosed terminally ill. We had 8 days of conversation before he passed. I wish it had been more but I'll take what we were given. Those 8 days were filled with love, no bitterness just love. I wish we'd found each other before though - but what time we did have made me a more complete (and less hurt and angry) person. I'm so happy that you and Gary - and the other guys have come together again.

DreamSleuth's picture

P.S. You guys must be exhausted! I don't know how you all manage. I hope you get to rest soon. Easier said than done, but don't work too hard. We all want more performances later, so don't go burning out, or anything. Much love. xx

friday at 14:29 Heather Dearie posted on your fb page about how she's waiting for a brain tumour operation. I'm not sure when she goes in, but she thanked you for happy memories and said she's proud to have been your friend for 20 years. I was hoping, as we're all friends on here that we could all send good wishes, and maybe it will help her come though this ordeal. I've not stopped thinking about it since I read her touching post. Good luck Heather. Your friends wish you luck. xx

Hello Robbie, Slapped arse face here. I've been told to come read your blog as people are assuming you are apologising to me. I'm the woman you "had a go" at in Croke on the front barrier. I've read your blog and I'm not sure if that is aimed at me or not. I saw you have a go at someone in Birmingham and my friends told me you did it to someone in Glasgow too. I'm 41 at the end of this month and unfortunately, you attempting to humiliate me in front of 80,000 people is not the worst thing that has ever happened to me so don't trouble yourself too much over it. You had the benefit of a microphone - I did not and I had no chance to answer you. You assumed that because I had a Gary banner my non enjoyment of your solo section was because I'm a Gary fan and I haven't forgiven you for the way you treated him. That's not the reason at all but I wont presume to think you want to know the actual reasons and post them here. I read enough ridicule on Twitter and Facebook. I will say this though - at the precise point in time you picked on me I was thinking oh my god I'm bringing my 10 year old little girl next week and if she comes away from a Take That concert asking me what a Motherfucker is I'll be mortified. In the end I told her you were an idiot and to ignore everything you said - I took her to the toilet at the point I thought you'd be particularly bad. I'm glad you've found peace in your life Robbie and that you have the babies you say you want one day. And should you have a little girl I hope she is the most precious thing in the world to you and you do everything in your power to protect her. Maybe then you'll understand that particular viewpoint. Actions have consequences and the consequence of your actions that night was that while you were chanting name and shame at me, and getting the audience to do the same, the camera was only ever pointing at my friend. She lives in Dublin and for a few days feared leaving her house for retaliation from Robbie fundamentalists. It's her you owe an apology to. It doesn't surprise me in the least to read you say it's Gary that has put you back on track. That's the kind and beautiful man that he is and one of the reasons why I love him. Unfortunately that's not the last you'll see of my slapped arse face. I'm coming to Amsterdam and Munich too. The tour bubble hasn't burst yet! "Catherine" to my friends "GB4Me" on the forums "Slapped arse face" to you ..... maybe. x

I just wanted you to know that your words really encourage me to make friends with myself, and to be a better person...In one of your blogs you say that you tell other people you're mad because mad people don't know, or something like that (i can't find the post).Let me tell you something MADNESS IS THE ABILITY OF SEEING BEYOND

Xxxxx

Chezachuck's picture

well what can i say about this blog words can describe the sheer honesty and devout commitment you have choose im glad you did come back robbie you made the child with in me very very happy . when yous first came out i was 7 i had my room decked out in posters scarfs rather crazy about yous . my mam thought i was too young for concerts for 2 years i begged to see you so it was agreed that i was allowed to go whooop! BUT .... things chanced after one saturday morning after borrowing take that party on vhs my mam comes in the sitting room to a 9 year old eating coco pops and dancing along to " do what you like " mams decision turned to a BIG NO NO ! thus came a slightly hysterical little girl who couldnt go to a concert after one saturday morning watching a group of lads naked turned to be a bad thing ... this only came to me watching you on tv and the smash hits awards . in 2005 mark gary jason and howard got back together those concerts sold out before i could get the chance to buy any . even the circus one sold out but after waiting for 15 years for you all to come back the 9 year old in me got her wish .. i got to see you in cardiff on the 15th june and it was amazing well worth the wait it was rather had to contol the 9 year old in me i lost my voice due to the concert which was well worth it , the music the atmosphere was amazing words cant describe what i felt i did shed a tear in all honesty i cant wait for the next album and the next tour. i hope your going to have children because there is i can see a little boy with your cheeky smile and a little girl who will be the spit Ayda in your life big love rachel x

Hello Rob, I even read your blog completly.... (after I did "over read" your blog last night...just the part about UFO's...;-))... The words you said about Gary made me tears... I'm very touched by your words and happy to read how you think about him and about everything... There are so many ppl who are going trough the same over years...but they just will never feel how it feels after they said "sorry" to each other.... It's hard to say and also not easy to forgive each other...but it's a wonderful feeling after you did and you just feel happy... "Too often we don't realize what we have until it's gone. Too often we're too stubborn to say, 'Sorry, I was wrong.' Too often it seems we hurt the ones closest to our hearts, and we let the most foolish things tear us apart" - ...a quote I love and so very true... I'm happy that you're happy now! xxx And thanks.... I can't wait CARS 2 ... just thanks a lot with all my heart.... it's amazing just the way it is.... thanks for being my friend.... xxx

Hey Rob, THIS is a beautiful kind of addiction my dear. The first one, where we don't have to worry about you! (Beside the fact that you sleep to less ;o))Thank you for sharing all this with us and for your love. Be sure that this love comes back to you!!! Have fun in Italy tomorrow. XXX

Hello Rob, am new here and just wanted to let you know that while I wasn't particularly fond of your bashing Gary publicly, I never held it against you as it was obvious to me that you were in a lot of pain. Surely mistakes were made on both sides, but that's what makes us human. I must say, though, that I felt really sorry for Gary during that period of time where it seemed to be "in" to pick on him and I am glad that he came out a well-rounded and decent man. Anyway, am very happy for both of you that you were able to forgive and make a new start. Love you both and that's not going to change. Actually, love all five of you and wish you all only the very best. BTW, don't feel guilty, if you can't get back to each of us or are not up to writing a blog. Take good care of yourself, that's the most important thing. See you in Düsseldorf in two weeks. Much love. x

Give it a try Just a short one. Rob, you wrote about the TT fundamentalists and how everybody should be gentle and try to be friends or at least have some respect for each others. And I have to tell you, your so damm right ... Last year, when I read your going back together with the lads I thought "Holy shit, why is he doing this? What a stupid decision! He don't need to do this group thing again". I never payed attention to TT. I never was a fan. But now, a year has passed and I saw how you sort things out, how you overcome the past - and I like it. Because of your choice I gave TT a chance to win me over and they did - not only with the progress album (that sounds like a RW album to me) but with the old songs and the stuff they did as four. The first time around I was to young to see you guys on stage and I'm glad now I get the chance to. Nobody knows, except u, but at least I've got the feeling u're finally where you always wanted to be and I'm glad about this. I like what you and the lads are doing right now and I will definitely enjoy this concert summer which would not be possible without TT ;-)

Again, where is the delete button? First off, if you'd like I can make it so you have to delete me.......2ndly, I for one wasn't interested in a pop star (I could give a shite about anyone that has a celebrity status, as they are truly having their heaven on earth, as the Bible says)..3rdly, "moderators" LOL....and pray tell when was the last time you had a chat with the "friends"....was it a tour that had a few empty seats that needed soliciting? You had plenty of opportunity before now to blog to your friends....and all that time on your hands to boot.

Hi Robbie! (this one's from my missus): Looking forward to see you guys on stage again, tomorrow in Milano!!! Too bad they'd cancelled all the Red Zone tickets 4 days before the gig! 1600 people was told their tickets were no longer valid and they had to change them to regular tickets...badly organized, indeed! Nothing will spoil the night anyway! Rock on!

Dear Friend I am very happy for you and the guy's. Did not realise that you were dyslexic my son is as well and I can understand that long blogs are difficult to concentrate on. Keep doing what you are doing and be happy that is all we want you to be Robster (Shazloou)xxxxx
