I disagree, Bob is not 'the future', a part of it inevitably, but not the whole shooting match. In my experience, Bob is a different animal to Dave; if for example you want to start at A, go through B then C and finally arrive at D, then Bob's your man, anything involving deviation from this or needing creative thought then the answer's not in Bangalore.Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostBob wants it more than us and so Bob is the future.
So what does Bob want? Bob wants Dave. He wants to be Dave. He wants a piece of Dave.

Selling Dave to Bob
While I was in the pub this evening, reading the pub paper (The Sunday Mail obviously) and having to interject & correct the lead of the pub 'Times Crossword' group that appear every Sunday that 'Graham Gooch scored 333, not 222 against India' it dawned on me that Bob is becoming big. In fact, Bob wants it more than us and so Bob is the future.
So what does Bob want? Bob wants Dave. He wants to be Dave. He wants a piece of Dave.
So what can Dave give to Bob?
Union Jack Sofas? Scottish Whisky from cousin Hamish? Big Ben clocks?
I see a plan B forming here CUK. What should Dave export to Bob???Tags: None
