“I never had a brother, and George [Harrison] was how I felt a brother to be. He loved to make you happy, to see your expression when he showed you stuff that meant something to him, like walking in the garden and showing you a plant of which he knew the Latin name. Even in the garden, he was such an artist. It was so pretty, and he liked to share these things. He was so easy to be around, and he had this mischievous glint in his eye yet never harmful. Such a sense of humour. Once when Ringo, George, and I were sitting in his garden, George said ‘Let’s all grow old together and live in a great big house.’ I felt that’s what would happen. To wake up at Friar Park to a cup of tea and a slice of lemon cake, to play with George was magic.”

What if the Wilburys got so drunk they started screaming at each other what the correct pronunciation of a word is, like tomato or something

My submission for @wilburyweek’s event!

Day 5: America/England

Here we have the Wilburys in their drunken states.

Two Wilburys named George and Tom are arguing over what really is the difference between a biscuit and a cookie,

Another Wilbury named Jeff who’s very frustrated with their screaming,

Another Wilbury named Bob that may or may not be grumpier than usual and is wishing he drank enough to pass out on the floor instead of witnessing this hellhole,

And a Wilbury named Roy who is accompanied by a rare Sidebury named Jim, offering to drink somewhere else… assuming he can even drink.
