News from Rob:

---

We're sorry that you had to find this
out through the newspapers, but we were hoping until the last minute that this -
Justin's exit - wasn't going to happen.

We - Dan, Ed and Richie - are
still in total shock and can't say at this stage what the future
holds.

We would like to thank all our fans, partners and family for their
continuous support.

You will hear from us, once we know what we want to
do...

Just a preface I'm totally pisched and prolly sohul'dnt even be on line right now, let alone writing an entry.

The younger crowd has gone to bed, hopefully dreaming of a perfect world where no one does drugs or gets fucked up, ever.  My hearts go out to everyone who I talked with today.  Things are never easy and I'm sorry I couldn't be the good mother that I had when I was in the golden circle.  No matter how much I do or what I say I still feel I didn't do enough. 

At this time of night I am the younger crowd.  Thanks to everyone who is taking me through it now that my strength has dissolved. 

BTW: to anyone needing to get drunk quickly.  1part apple cider to 4 parts vodka works wonders.  I've had two rocks tumblers full already.  By anyone's standards I should be passed out.  I'm not that lucky apparently. 

After twelve hours of knowing, I just feel... tired.  I want to go to bed and wake up tomorrow knowing it's all a dream.  My sincerest wishes go out to Dan, Ed, Ritchie, Sue, Rob, Adi, Charlotte, Ian&Allen and everyone else involved.  People from Australia to Los Angeles have been crying all day.  I'm all cried out.  The band really did mean everything to so many of us.

In other news, I've been pulling my hair out again.  Great big chunks are missing.  I didn't even know until later this afternoon when I saw a big pile on my desk.  Related to above mentioned event?  Most likely. Thanks Justin.  Love ya.
