Fans fear Nessie is now dead LOCH NESS monster watchers believe the famous Scottish attraction is dead. Only one credible sighting of Nessie was made last year and none in the previous 12 months. Gary Campbell, president of the Official Loch Ness Monster Fan Club, says it could mean the mythical creature has sunk to the bottom of the 230m-deep lake. Ten years ago we had a lot of good sightings, he said. But in the last two or three years, they have tailed off. No hard evidence has ever been produced to support the creatures existence. MacGowan: I can never call it a nightUNWASHED Pogues singer Shane MacGowan has revealed he can live without sleep for a week when he is on one of his boozy benders. The frontman said eventually he sim- ply crashes out when he becomes too tired and then begins again. The 52-year-old Dirty Old Town singer is known for punishing his body with years of heavy drinking, often appear- ing drunk on stage. The hedonistic lifestyle during his years as a musician has also made his teeth rot, which led to expensive dental work last year. I generally stay awake for about a week, MacGowan told Mojo magazine. I get catnaps, and then when Im really exhausted I crash out for a good long while and carry on, you know what I mean? He made his revelations af- ter being asked whether he found his songwriting came more easily at certain times of the day, such as be- fore bed. Maybe if I went to bed, he replied. Despite the beating he has given his body, MacGowan said he was aiming for a long life but had no plans to change his ways. What Im interested in doing is having a great time, and the audience having a great time, and living as long as I possibly can, he said. MacGowan also revealed he had been told to buy a lot- tery ticket by a fairy during the interview, which took place during an all-night drinking session at his fa- vourite pub, in Nenagh, Co Tipperary. The beer stopped flowing at 7am but were not sure if he called it a night...
