It all started back in 1992. It had been a hot summer and I had been very lonely since my parents had moved to this new town. My Pa decided to buy me a dog. I named him Excalibur because I like that kind of King Arthur rubbish. We were best pals for 15 years. Today is the anniversary of his death. I wrote a song about Excalibur with my band, Isle of Avalon. We've just received a record contract to release it as a single. Even after his death he's still providing for me and making sure that I'm okay. My best friend 'til the last.

RIP.

Your best friend
Paul Clarkson.
