Hi, I'm Johnny Nash Jnrs uncles drinking buddy and I know Mark Chamberlain and through Mark I know Max.

I don't know too much about him except he had cluster of moles on his arse.

hahaha

the bile being spewed into that comments section is hilarious

He represents a demographic that quite frankly isn't heard from enough, and if we aren't careful could be completely ignored by today's society. How is a nineteen year old, white, public school boy with a penchant for stubble going to get a head in life unless he has a weblog about his already-paid-for round-the-world trip? Free entry in the Azteca Latin Lounge isn't going to last forever.

As Andy Pietrasik's blog hasn't mentioned the fact Max won't be writing any more blogs, I thought I'd bring all those heroic internet warriors the good news. Max's trip (which he paid for himself I'm afraid - sorry) has got off to the worst possible start and he's feeling pretty grim so that's double good news for the brave warriors. You may like or dislike the blog but the cruelty is shocking if quintessentially British. Obviously everyone in his family is very hurt for Max so that's a bonus. I won't be reading any more smug clever dick comments but feel free to kick me around the field a bit now - just please leave Max alone. He hasn't actually done anything wrong and you have your wish - he won't be writing any further blogs.

Offensive? Unsuitable? Report this comment.

This is piss poor. The guy should have just kept blogging - he'd have had a massive audience and at least a couple more entries to win people round before he was dismissed as a total tnuc. Could've properly made his career.

absolutely.

coward's way out.

dubluke · Post by **dubluke** » Fri Feb 15, 2008 5:53 pm

he's made himself look more of an arse by wussing out of it now, i probably would have had a bit of respect for him if he'd carried on despite getting rinsed

Some one has added a section regarding poor Max on wikipedia under nepotism. That boy got merked left right center.

As of February 2008, there has also been controversy regarding the subject of nepotism in the media, when Max Gogarty - son of Paul Gogarty, a freelance travel writer who had written for The Guardian - was granted a Guardian online column detailing his gap year holiday. Many people, via the Guardian's online comments, have stated that this opportunity would not have been given to someone who was not as well-connected; an argument denied by the Guardian's travel editor.
