  1. The Best of UB40 - Volume One. I remember when Food For Thought first came out and me being a naive loyal subject of out blessed UK, I thought it was a severe boat rocking pop song. How stupid can one be..? It was actually an extremely well written song, in the UK reggae style, with a message. UB40 made some lovely music. At this moment, I'm listening to the track King, and it is a really beautiful piece of music.
  2. Indeed. I live in Southampton North and Romsey [how's that for a constituency..?], and sadly, depsite voting tactically, we couldn't keep out the Tory candidate. To look at her photograph, you know the woman has not seen a single day's hardship in her entire life. As to her chat..? How on earth is she ever equipped to be an MP..?
  3. Foxton [Tip: Need S-i-P to come in here from NZ. I wonder he's heard of Foxton Straights..? That's an NZ jean trouser style, to you and me].
  4. Aha, I never succumbed to that old scam. I still have getting on for 500 vinyl albums, about 30 bought CDs, one DiVX/DVD/CD player and one portable of the same, but FOUR analogue TURNTABLES. One is a Linn Sondek, another is a Thorens TD160 MkII, and another a Pioneer PL12D in the cupboard for the day when someone desparately wants to play some vinyl, and the last one is a Goldring Lenco GL75 that I saw at a tip, that had been dropped into a skip. The owner obviously thought it was sh!te, but was entirely mistaken. The plinth and lid were broken, but I rescued it anyway. I paid 2 quid for it and gave it some TLC which cost me practically nothing, but my old expertise in the old turntable technology. And now it's paying me back beautifully by playing Cross Eyed Mary [yeah, I turned the side over] excellently, right now.
  5. Where's the compassion..?
  6. Spitfire [or Hurricane if you prefer]
  7. Hello mate... No, not at all. Just a series of their famous sketches, played out on the Drury Lane stage. I'm now on to Jethro Tull - Aqualung, Side 2 only [vinyl] as the mood has grabbed me to listen to it.
  8. Monty Python - LIVE at Drury Lane.
  9. Dive [present tense of that awful US dove]
  10. Camp = tents
  11. Nice goal. Looked good.
  12. I never wanted to do this for a living. I... I always... wanted to be... a Lumberjack..! Leaping from tree to tree, as they float down the mighty rivers of British Columbia. The Giant Larch, the Redwood, the mighty Scotts Pine..!
  13. de vilbiss
  14. Who else..? I voted Rickie too.
  15. Shame the entire French football team doesn't.
  16. Whenever Papa Waigo scored. He always seemed to save it for extra special moments. Whatever his worth to the side, he's a great character.
