The Gospel According to Bishop Simon

Tell me your funniest memory of Simon Bishop and I will try to collate everything into an illustrated book. It might only end up being a zine, but I still feel it would be a fitting tribute to someone who spread laughter and joy to all. Or to most, anyway. Definitely to me.

Too many to document really but him “playing keyboard” on a table in Fab Cafe to the instrumental part of “Respect” by Erasure. Him freaking out because I walked on the outer side of curbs on a regular basis. The legendary “iBag” with his treasured iToys in, complete with numerous Muslin cloths to keep his pride and joys sparkling clean. His inability to burp.... lots more but that’s off the top of my head. He was an absolute star! x

I'll start with Simon's bible bashing. He was a pacifist, so he would never use violence but if there was a Gideon's Bible in any hotel room he stayed in, he would throw it out of the window. If the window didn't open, it went in the bin. In book shops, he moved as many bibles as he could to the fiction section. But by far the funniest was the 'signed copy' sticker that he slapped on the front of one.


Now it's your turn...
