Tubes' Diary
Lift me up Scotty!
Hawk was cool, but the lifts were better
Last updated: 27th November 2009
The best thing about the junket wasn't the interview though; it was the lifts at the hotel we were in! They were unbelievable. The walls, floor and ceiling were covered with stars and planets and it felt like I was travelling at warp speed!

Quotes of the week
I've never really been much of a skater boy.
My brother used to be a bit of a BMX fan, but I was only ever interested in football. That said it was great to meet Tony Hawk on Monday.
The former pro skater was in town to promote his new game and he was a really nice guy. He was all business on camera, but off it he was really cool and he had a decent chat with everyone.
The best thing about the junket wasn't the interview though; it was the lifts at the hotel we were in!
They were unbelievable. The walls, floor and ceiling were covered with stars and planets and it felt like I was travelling at warp speed!
If I didn't have an interview to do I reckon I would've wasted half a day just going up and down them - it was that much fun.
Still, it wasn't as entertaining as Chelsea on Saturday. I had to miss my side's cup game to go, but it was definitely worth it.
Wolves might not be the strongest team in the Premier League, but I thought we looked really good, especially considering we were without Didier Drogba, Frank Lampard and Ricardo Carvalho.
There were some great performances all over the pitch but I couldn't believe how well Gael Kakuta played for his debut.
He's only 18 and looks about 12 but he was amazing! He roams around a bit like Joe Cole and within the first couple of minutes of coming on he had skinned someone and nearly scored.
I think the strength of our squad showed again on Wednesday when we beat Porto too. They're not the same team as a few years back but it's still impressive to beat them on their patch. Fingers crossed we'll continue this form into Christmas.

Tubes answers your questions
Tubessss! I've got one question and one question only ... now that you're a bit too old to make it as a professional footballer, is there any chance of seeing you in the dugout ?Darren Brooks (Manchester City fan).
Tubes replies: I've never really thought about it Darren, but I think I'm probably more suited to being a waterboy! I might think about it in a few years though. I wouldn't mind coaching a kid's team at some point.
You are Tubes, you got long hair, but I would cut it cos you look like a bear ... ooo grizzly. Anyway Tubes you are an awesome rapper, cool guy and make me laugh every time I see you but what I want to know is... what is better, white chocolate or regular? Love you Tubes, love Hymers?Andrew Hymers (Liverpool fan).
Tubes replies: I don't want to start on a negative note Hymers but I don't have long hair anymore so; ooohh grizzly not anymore, that rap was really poor - you know nothing... Tubes knows the score!
To answer your question, I don't really eat chocolate anymore to be honest but if I had to choose I'd go regular. When I was younger I used to be a bit of a chocolate fiend. I used to spend all my dinner money on it at the local Esso station, which probably explains why I was a bit of a fat kid.
My question for Tubes is... who is the nicest looking female person that has been on the show including Helen??Andrew Hymers (Liverpool fan).
Tubes replies: Good question Gary. I'd say Nadine Velazquez off My Name Is Earl. She was FIT!
