Thank God for that, I thought we had an imposter Wire on the loose who hadn't done his research properly.
I thought exactly the same thing! I thought Nicky had been watching GBBO and had gotten all ambitious

Even microwaving would have been impressive for Wire, but apparently it is beyond him. Who the hell wants a cold croissant? C-.

I want him on a celebrity Bake-Off, skillz or no skillz. Actually, no skillz, but they're not allowed to kick him off. Nicky attempting croquembouche. My life, nay, EVERYONE'S lives, will be made by this spectacle.

Depends how I'm feeling. I prefer pain au chocolat. Oi, Wire, are you listening, for the next time I pop round!

@asoundreaction: Spent a hugely enjoyable few hours in the company of @manics JDB, a consummate host whose tea making is almost as good as his guitar playing

@asoundreaction: Exclusive acoustic versions of Show Me The Wonder and A Design For Life plus interview coming to @WalesOnline soon.
