THE Friday Boys are a disparate group of men spread across Tyneside who meet once a week - 'always on a Friday' - to talk about the arts, raise a glass to recently departed heroes and villains and, at the evening's end, down a whisky or two. The FBs have only one golden rule - talk of the working week is strictly off-limit.

COUSIN JIM SAVES JACKO'S ASS
REUTERS: Negotiations have been launched to fill the now vacant Michael Jackson gigs at the 02 Arena in London, starting next month. Jim Henderson - aka Cousin Jim - is to perform a selection of his legendary monologues live on stage. They will include 'The Bishop's Story', McConkey's Jacket' and 'The Deer Story'.As a concession to the Jackson legend, Jim has agreed to wear a white glove on his left hand when delivering the comic masterpieces. Tony Slattery will be the support.In the unlikely event of fans wanting a refund, please call Peter Yare on 0191 4286734.Jackson has cancelled the concerts, citing death as an excuse.
