AHATTIASMADD

I have been prompted by blog follower Davy to mention the AHATTIASMADD. What the fuck is that I hear you ask and rightly so. The AHATTIASMADD is, of course, the Alfred Hitchcock And The Three Investigators Appreciation Society (Maybole and District Division). This is the club that Big Tiny, Me, Aztek and John Swan formed in 1981. What happened was, if during a meeting someone said something you agreed with you had to say "Good idea!" three times while clapping your hands in front of and then behind your body. Similarly, if someone said something you disagreed with, you had to chant"Bad Idea!" three times, with appropriate fore and aft body hand clapping. If you think that sounds a bit weird, please bear in mind that we were only 15 at the time. Ah the folly of youth. There was also a newsletter, but it was only one typed page and frankly, not very good.
