Burnham Folk Festival
A BIG BIG M.O.D THANK YOU.
M.O.D wish to thank YOU. YOU who came to see us play BURNHAM ON SEA’s BEAUTIFUL FOLK FEST
We LOVE YOU ALL.
We EVEN LOVE THOSE WHO WERE NOT THERE TOO.
Here are some made up quotes from the band:
Betty (Violin & Vocals and GLITTERY TOP)
I was brilliant as usual. These paltry fools who inhabit my band shall be punished for being BLOODY BRILLIANT too.
The Miggle (Hammer of M.O.D)
Every body laughed we were all so happy. I played my drums loudly.
Alex (Thunderous Bass)
They made me do it. But I laughed. LAUGHED. Like I do when I see CHICKENS.
Badger (Washboard Stadium Gig Warrior)
The crowd were so beautiful. I loved them all. No matter how hairy
Jerry (Guitars and singing and M.O.D creative genius)
Wibble
So, as you can see dear reader, M.O.D LOVED playing for YOU. THANK YOU.
Thank you Sarah for the lovely pictures… more to be found on FACEBOOK here

Betty’s Gardening Tips for July
Good morning.
I am Betty. But you may call me Betty. I play violin for my friends. Sometimes I SHOUT AT THEM and make them eat PORRIDGE.
I am also very keen on plants and all the furry woodland chums in the M.O.D garden.
Here are Betty’s Gardening Tips for the month of July.
In July, you may LOOK AT PETUNIAS. The ONES THAT YOU GREW AND DID NOT INFORM ME ABOUT.
Here are some PETUNIAS.
Do NOT EAT THEM. They will make your tummy all wrong. Betty CANNOT CURE THIS.

MORE PETUNIAS

Are they NOT BEAUTIFUL?
MORE!
FEAST your EYES. ON THESE BEAUTIES.

Betty thanks you for your UNDERSTANDING.

Date Change for Frome Gig!
Hello.
Due to unforeseen, and frankly reprehensible, possibly even nefarious reasons, Alex has decreed that the 27th October 2012 is International Alex Day.
Hitherto, this date was occupied by a gig by your BEAUTIFUL M.O.D. Thanks to Alex’s pretentions and wilful imagination, we are forced to grovel to YOU and make a change to the advertised date.
During IAD, we are informed, it is compulsory for an Alex to lie down in a darkened room making ridiculous bleeping robot noises.
Your Alex then refers to himself in the third person ALL DAY and will only consume OIL and AXLE GREASE.
He will also only answer when spoken to and only to inform you loudly that he is from the planet ALEXA MINOR IN THE UPPER QUADRANT OF THE ALEX SYSTEM.
M.O.D are inclusive sorts. To this end, the gig at The Griffin, Frome, has been moved to International Alex Day Eve, which, for those schooled in the comprehensive system, is FRIDAY, the 26th OCTOBER.
Here is a photo of Alex. MIGGLE was unavailable.
You are now allowed to RIDICULE Alex
RIDICULE HIM
Weekend Roundup Thing
What a lovely weekend.
M.O.D did two lots of PLAYING in front of REAL people. People like YOU. Yes. YOU. You and your shiny friends. Yeah, you go to your shiny NEW friends. We used to be friends but now you’ve got all your SPECIAL NEW ONES. Well, don’t come running back to us when they disappoint you. Yeah they promise…
Oh.. sorry, bit off track there.
Anyhoo…
Some photos, what Jerry took, and we STOLE from his album. How we laugh. We are such sculduggerous coves. Oh yes.
