Space daddy, you need a space daddy!
Donāt be shy, donāt be shy
Though youāre gone away this morning
Now the time has nearly come
The place where I stand gives way to liquid linoĀ
Wow this really went to some disparate places, haha. Thanks!Ā Ā

The phrase comes from a (possibly erroneous) Carl quote from that story about the supposedly crazy girl who they used to live with. Off the top of my head, the story that she told was that she gave Peter money to pay the bills or something, he assured her he did (he did not), but Carl warned her that Peter hadĀ āveracity problemsā – that is to say, he doesnāt always tell the truth, lol. I have no idea if the story is actually true haha but I can hear Carl saying that in my head!
In fairness it wasnāt really anything bad (and it was a translated interview so idk the words he used in English!) – he said heĀ ānever really understood what they were trying to doā, or something like that. He definitely didnāt consider FF to be part of the same movement or musical line of succession as the Libs, anyway!
Haha well I did have the same thought initially, likeĀ āDoes anyone else know about this, or is it just in his own headā lol, but then he mentioned it again, and there is precedent in that heās had shops before, so… I guess itāll just be something for him to have till he gets bored of it or someone tells him to stop, lol. BUT yes I do hope heās going to concentrate on music, tho Iām more anxious for him to get back to work with the Libertines than anything else, I have to say!Ā
Haha oh nooooo I still love Carl with my whole heart! But heās more elusive in Margate haha, Peterās always about! You can barely avoid seeing him if you spend a day or two there lol
Nothing Comes to Nothing is a Babyshambles song! From their third album, and I like it a lot.
Iām trying to remember exactly what was said! Carl asked “What’s you second favourite soup?” and I might not have caught the immediate response because I was too busy killing myself laughing with @missoneminute but I have a memory of Peter saying something slightly snarky or dismissive, like a āThatās quite enough of thatā type comment – I remember his response piquing my curiosity anyway! Does anyone else have a clearer memory?Ā
Unfortunately not, but there wasnāt any cake there when we got there, so maybe heād already been in that day! Haha
Ahh yeah I know and have enjoyed all those fics! Probably my favourite ever is Canāt Get a Life (If My Heartās Not In It), on AO3 – thereās not a huge number of Libs fics on there, but thereās some good ones! Another of my faves is a fic called Counter Attack which is a WWI AU and is wonderful. I also loveĀ
