If anyone missed it on the last Wire, the picture of Bono, Sinead and Dave
Stewart busking in the beach resort of Juan les Pins in the South of France
can now be found at either of these two sites:

http://www.vaxxine.com/U2/

http://www.potomac.com/deseree/cafejam.htm

I have no idea what they sang, it didn't say in the caption.

I've had over 30 requests for the picture so far. If you're one of those
people who e-mailed me for it, please can you visit one of the above sites.
 I'm very sorry I can't send it to you all personally. I'm not very good
at scanning things and when I did it, it turned out to be almost 1.44mb,
which takes considerably longer to send than a picture ought to.

To all the people who e-mailed me: unless you asked for specific
information, I won't reply to you personally. I'll assume you'll be reading
this message and find the picture on one of the sites. So please don't
think I'm being rude.

Now for a little something I found in the UK Sun newspaper today (17 Aug):

BONO BONKERS ON BINGO

It's an unlikely pursuit for a rock god, but it turns out Bono's mad on
bingo!

The U2 singer especially likes calling out the numbers to amuse his pals
and even has his own patter.

Pal Robbie Williams says: "You go round to his house and he gets his bingo
set out, with the balls and everything. Then he sits back and starts
calling out numbers. When I was there, there were lots of celebrities and
Bono pulled out the bingo balls. Honestly, it was mad, absolutely
surreal."

Cheerio!
