Tom: "And...POW, IT CAME!!"

As usual, this 'month's' update has finally emerged after a great strain and slapped grotesquely onto the floor like an elephant might if you blended it and then blew it through a straw. (That's just a figure of speech, kids - don't go blending mammals.) But here it is! And weighing in at a flabby 3 and a bit thousand words, with some Youtube embedded videos (now i've learned how to do that) and a frankly immeasurable amount of disposable anecdotes about Japan being 'quite funny', and that.
Also, know this: That there's a NEW [FEATURE] entitled 'HENRY'S BEARD' which features the most tremendous piffle that the good ship Sauntson has deemed us worthy to read.
Also, know that the video links to Steve's Tribute video [FEATURE] what I made last year, has been fixed and the video from Youtube embedded. in fact, i think i'll stick it right below this text too.
The [LINKS] page also has some long-overdue additions, including Gavin's wonderful Super Furry Animals site, which has been running about the same time as Eggybread, sorry about the neglect, Gav. Also, some great new music coutesy of MY AUTUMN EMPIRE.
Oh, and you really all should buy The SPARKY DEATHCAP album right now, because it's bound to be great.
Finally, know that Tomston will be terminating his tenure good old J-peg as of mid-August, after an amazing 2 years and will be returning to A PUB NEAR YOU! (possibly to work if i don't sort something out soon...) so get them in, ready for my return. But not before I 'do' a bit of China before i hop on back.
Also, most of you will have already added me, but there's a bunch of pictures on my facebook, so take a looksie.
And yes, i know that the forum is down. I might fix it, or i might just redirect it to Myspace.
By the time you read this message, i will probably be asleep. Or making a cup of tea.
Loveyoubye!
Tomston. xxxxxxxxx

AFTER MONTHS OF WAITING…
…nothing came in. But then it did! In fact, it came in thick and fast,
and in 3000 glorious words, all of which can be found on the [DIARY] page which
contains tales of turtles, James Bond themes, Simply Red, Festivals, and why HENRY
is always HUNGRY in Japan.
In other news, there are 3 MAN-TASTIC outings in the [IMAGE DUMP] in
the way of coverage of our gatecrashing of the silver-spoons ball at CAMBRIDGE
TRINITY BALL 2005, some highly homoerotic BOWLING action from our University
days and some evidence that we all actually went to university in the first
place in the form of the YORK GRADBALL 2005. Slurp it up. It’s good for you.
Coming soon: as soon as I can be arsed to make a graphic for it, I
will usher in a whole new era, for I am currently in possession of a document
from the DADDYBADGER himself, Henry Sauntson, which will form his new,
irregularly updated column for the EGGYBREADSHOW, entitled ‘HENRY’S BEARD’. Having
read it several times myself, I can safely say it should cause something of a
stir. No-one is spared from the all-seeing-eye of Henston, least of all, JUDD
NELSON and the 80’s in general.
That’s enough for now. I’m off to make my tea.
Oh, and as it says in the [DIARY], you can prime your ‘Go’ buttons for
the 21st of December. You know why.
Tomston.

June 2006
LOCK UP YOUR MOTHERS: It's BACK.
*Ahem*. Yeah. Welcome back. Sorry about that. We just...popped out to
lunch. Yes, for three years, that's right. Look, if you want to put it in
perspective, imagine that the scenario is this. Your dad (this website) decided
that he was going out to fetch the paper 3 years ago. And then he never came
back. But then he did! And before you had chance to accost him for all his
prospective tompankery, you got a lump in your throat because it was just so
great to see him, and then he told you the sole reason he’d been away was that
he’d been punching Jamie Oliver repeatedly in the neck and had simply lost
track of time.
Well, sadly we haven’t been ‘doing’ the annoyingly-faced culinary
chopsmith, but rather we’ve been doing these things:
·
Arsing
about.
·
Procrastinating.
·
Graduating
University.
·
Moving to
Japan.
·
Referring
to ourselves as ‘we’ when it’s actually just one little Tomston .
But after all of that guff, we finally got off our
collective bottoms and sorted out the website.
But why now?
For a start, it's our birthday. That's right, this year, EGGYBREAD
turns a whopping SEVEN years old, and yes, the last 3 years offline do count.
(You'd still say a boy in a coma was getting older, wouldn't you?). We may have
fallen off the radar for a while, but suffice to say we’re back with our own, new radar, which has been enhanced with
lots of unnecessary wheels and nose-hair trimming functions.
Those enhancements in full:
The site has been resurrected
and tarted up like the proper multimedia strumpet it always threatened to be.
Well, that is, the following features have been added:
But that's not all, Mendoza:
Above and beyond all this, there's a BIG new THING i've yet to
mention. There's a clue in the name. That's right: EGGYBREAD is DEAD. Long live
EGGYBREADSHOW.
While our inaugural episode isn't up just yet, the EGGYBREADSHOW aims,
(and I choose my words carefully here) to be the same old nostalgia-sponge it
always was, except in a new, 30 minute TV show format, available for free
download, to be updated on a bi-monthly basis.
Can't believe your eyes? Then why not try our teaser trailer - go on -
it's right here and
it features a tribute to someone very close to the hearts of all those who
attended York University 2002-2005.
In further changes, if you’re looking for the old stuff, the features
have been relocated to the [STALE] section where you can rub your eyes against
things like ‘How Free Is A Free Bag Of Crisps?’ and various installments
containing awful bumfluff ‘taches that have since been made illegal.
Welcome back, boys.
Tomst.
