I feel a bit bad for you this week...

It seems it makes no difference if you want to be on Twitter or not, someone is doing it for you...personally I would put my foot down about that, but that's just me.

Aww...I didn't manage to catch your show this week, but I was just listening to your podcast and you sounded really impressed that the Klingon language has 5 vowels and 21 constanents in it and said it was like the Welsh language.  I really hate to break it to you so abruptly and publicly, but the alphabet actually has 5 vowels and 21 constanents in it, so it's not that impressive since Klingon was written by Americans who speak english...sorry my sweet.

Fantastic show in Buxton tonight Rhod.  I'm the 6ft tall, 45 year old Cleudo player from the front row and just wanted to say that it was an absolute treat to see you live for the first time, you exceeded my already high expectations and I look forward to seeing you on your next tour .. "the gold bullion tour"? Loved the improv luggage scene without the prop. So when you are fleshing out your next tour itenary, please remember the good folk of Burton!!  Thanks again .. top fella

Hi Rhod,

Excellent show in Newtown Saturday night. With the number of people from Oswestry in the crowd, perhaps you could play Oswestry.

I wanted to write something really witty and punchy, but I couldn't think of anything, you're an enigma so it is impossible to second guess what you are thinking or may like to hear.

You're handsome; but I assume you get told that alot by women.  You're funny; no doubt you get told that too.  You're incredibly endearing; no doubt an aunt or mother has said that to you at some point, so i'm stuck for things to say...but like a typical woman, having nothing to say wont stop me from talking.

You're wonderful and listening to your show really makes me smile, I like your taste in music too.

I'm sending you lots of love and hugs, save them up if you don't need them yet
