Bill Oddie and Goodie Flavor

Several years ago, before I began tackling fiction more (or less) seriously, I wrote a few funsie pieces for GROK: The Goodies Rule OK fan club newsletter.

The Goodies were the 1970s trio of Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graeme Garden, and Bill Oddie that combined comedic sketches, cartoon-like stunts, and original songs into a half program.

One Australian man actually died laughing during the "Ecky Thump," Kung Fu type spoof.

At the time, I had a second column with the Herald News--Local Flavor--stories that revolved around area people and their culinary habits. So in a fit of productive muse, I wrote this piece below:
