My new name

I've recently been thinking about changing my name to Lane Roberts P.I. for the simple reason that it just sounds so chuffing good.

Though it's something ive wanted to do for a while, i've been further encouraged by one of my friends who has now changed his name to Maxwell Betts (I'm not lying by the way, he's actually got a library card out under the name Maxwell Betts). And who can blame him? It's a great name.

Before I make this rash decision, I had to see who I'd be sharing the name with. Alas, it's not such a large family as share my current name. Here's most of the Lane Roberts club.

#1 Rodeo Lane Roberts (with horse - note the different coloured hat, clearly he has a good range) ("They call it the 'wild west'. And I'm about wild as they come. Yes sirrrreee")






























#2 King of Chicken Lane Roberts ("Come on down to my restaurant in East Michigan and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. My flame grilled chicken steaks are the finest in the whole of the United States of America")














#3 'I wanna be wanna be wanna Jim Morrison' Lane Roberts ("I think what our music is saying is that there's a fragility to life that you can't always express in words but you know is there. It's like, that moment before you die, and your life flashes before your eyes - if you survive you feel like you've cheated, that you've you've won. Yeah, that's definitely what my songs are about. Particularly the song "La di da de dee dum dee dee dee" from our first album. People say the 8 minutes of me shouting 'la dee da' at the end really make them think about death.)
