Fucking Fuck Fabulous Feedback
The best thing about running this site is the feedback I get from various people and Eastern Block (Cardiff) types. Whether it be 'you're a jack cunt' or people ask me to assist in the organising of blamonge and Meths for Tea Cosie Pete's birthday bash, it's all good so keep it coming!

Some of the best Items of feedback can be seen below:

The '5th best non Hull City site on the web' incident
This cam in the same week as the Rocking Sikh mails so I thought it really was piss take week but I checked out the link and it's true! Apparently this site really is 'the 5th best non Hull City site on web' whcih is nice! Respect to Hull for tellig it as it is and for display the most precise flags at football matches i.e. Union Jacks with East Hull written on them - superb scenes!

Hull-o!

You are probably not interested, but after exhaustive research over the last 30 minutes, we have decided to list This Is Swansea as the fifth best non-Hull City football club site on the whole interweb thing.

See http://www.thekempton.com/fanzine/links/index.html if your own two/four eyes would like to see this news for themselves.

All the best,

This will be probably be the best, most bizzare feedback I am ever likely to receive. The story is told through the emails and pictures below:

Hi there

I am desperately trying to track down Peter Singh the Asian Elvis
impersonator with a view to his performing at Bob Geldof's 50th birthday
party in Kent this Saturday. Do you have a number for him please? Thanks.

I When I received the above email my intial thoughts were 'this is a windup.' I mean, here I am with a website full of pictures of tramps and round girls fishing on the beach and some company wants me to get in touch with Peter Singh!? So I replied with the following mail:

hello danielle

i do not know the rocking sikhs number off hand but will try and get it for
you tomorrow. don't know if he will be up for the gig though after geldof
snubbed him when organising live aid. i reckon he should have played peter
singh instead of queen.

another avenue you might want to try is contacting the south wales evening
post, adelaide street, swansea as he is quite often featured in there. their
website address is: www.tisw.co.uk.

ciau for now

jam

After I sent the mail I put a post on some lists I am on to try and trace Singh and also had a look at the Dr Party website and found out that this was in fact a real company who had organised such legendary parties as 'the Big Brother after show party' and was not a wind up. A little while after, the man responsible for some of the best page on this site and who used to deliver curries for the Turbanator, Murph, emailed me some contact details which i forwarded onto Dr Party:

the telephone number for the juboraj is 01792 702527 and they are currently
doing specials on massala's, kurma's, madras and bhuna's and free delivery.
i hope i have been of some help to you and if peter singh asks how you got
in touch with tell him my website address and that i do not want any free
curry.

diolch

I received an email back from the Dr thanking me for my efforts so left it at that. However, curiosity got the better of me and I wanted to know if Rocking Sikh was going to play on Geldof's patio or not so I email the Dr again to find out. The mail I sent and the replies are shown below:

hello danielle

did you manage to get in touch with the turbaned one? are pictures of
the event likely to be produced on the web? it would be most amusing to see
peter alongside geldof and his cronies. perhaps peter will convince him
to wear a turban to cover the mess that is bob geldofs hair

cheers

danielle

there is one other possibility left but is a long shot! a mate of mine
works in the pants section of debenhams and a work colleague of his has recently auditioned to be in some band with peter and apparently peter pops in now and then so i shall leave a message/your email with him just incase he does.

did you try that jubo raj restaurant? the bloke he gave me that
information knows peter well. i can leave a letter for him there if you like? also the
evening post should be able to help you by putting a wanted ad in or something

hi jam

we've been trying the jubo raj but it just rang & rang. we just called
again and got the bloke! i think i will ring the post as well and try to get a
story in tomorrow's paper. apparently peter got drunk and fell over and
broke his hand so he's in plaster

By this stage I made it my mission to get Peter to play in and get slammed and demolish Geldof's Kent semi so I sent the letter below to the Ep and got that smug -not entirely unexpected - bullshit reply:

Subject: trying to contact the elusive peter singh
Importance: High

hello andrew

i have been communicating with an agency who require the services of peter
singh the rocking sikh at bob geldofs 50th birthday in kent this saturday.
try as we might we are unable to get in touch with him despite leaving
messages at the jubo raj takeaway in morriston where he is believed to be
working.

after the tremendous entertainment peter has given the citizens of swansea
over the years i think it is only right that we try to give him something
back by informing him of this opportunity for him to show his talents and
this is where you come in. i was hoping you could either contact peter on
the agencies behalf (if you know his number) or put a small wanted type
mention in the evening post.

you may think that this is a wind up and to be honest that was my initial
reaction but i have included some of my correspondence with the managing
director of dr party which will prove otherwise. i hope you are able to
help.

regards

jam

We get Peter through the Jubo Raj and it was us who gave the agency the
phone number.
I have no other number for Peter.
Cheers, Andy
This reply pissed me off as it was quite obvious by the emails above that it was this site who helped the agency out but anyway - miracuously - the Ep printed 2 spreads covering the search for Peter and how they find him and how they contacted him and how they helped write the 10 commandments and blah blah blah with no mention of our contribution which to tell the truth left a bit of a sour taste but at least the aims were acheived and Peter was made aware that Geldof was on his case and this site got some recognition from the bright lights. Here are the EP articles:
