What I look like at the moment...

Posted January 7, 2004 2:50 AM.

A very recent picture of me trying to look serious. I shall shortly add this to my ongoing visual Brief History of Tom.

You were too skinny when you were younger! I much prefer normal-weighted Tom.

Holy shit, some criminal has taken over Tom's body and is growing him a beard!

I'm sorry Tom, I love you to bits and all but I the beard just makes me giggle like a Japanese school girl.

I really enjoyed that 'Freak Like Me' song you did with the Sugababes...

Ignore the philistines! Fuzzy hotness! Men who shave are hiding something. Their beards!

Love the pic with the cap.
Reminds me of when I used to hang round the Brief Encounter in the late 80s/early 90s, off my tits on speed and poppers.
All the boyz looked like you - just like members of that fab but forgotten pop act Big Fun.

All I can say is: "Don't blame it on the sunshine, don't blame it on the moonlight, don't blame it on the good times - blame it on the boogie.

Remember "no glove, no love!"

Peace.

Aren't you the scruffy little thing, eh?

I believe I have him beat in the scruffiness stakes. I'd provide photographic evidence, but I don't want to scare anyone (nor invite riducule, for that matter).

Which reminds me, I need a haircut. Number three all over, please.

I wouldn't toss you out. Adorable. Come visit when you can.

Is serious the same as hung over?

Posted by: Matt Patterson at January 12, 2004 2:28 PM

Sorry - should elucidate: my browser stalled loading the image below the mustache but above the lips, and Tom looked very miserable indeed...
