now there speaks an experienced teacher lol

and finally ol’ Jacques with some very rude lyrics and a fantastic tune..

wonder how westlife would change the lyrics

and does anyone remember this dreadful melodramatic pile of rubbish from Westlife – Seasons of the Sun – I cannot help but laugh while watching this self-pitying codswallop, originally from Terry Jacks…

but wait!

It was originally by Jacques Brel, and the lyrics couldn’t be more different, as he…[Read more]

Jacques Brel…one ugly mug, amazing singer-songwriter, this with English subtitiles, heartreaking as he begs his love not to leave him, promises that if she just stays one day, one night, she will experience love in all its magic

Although I’m not the biggest … fan, or Warhol for that matter, I’ve always been intrigued by Nico’s story since a watched a film about her life a good few years ago. I didn’t know that she lived with the Bard of Salford though, that fact seemed to have eluded me, so thanks for that.

On the very rare occasion when I plucked u…

this song reminds me of when I was 20, and I thought an attractive woman was no more than a pretty face. The song has a haunting tune, great lyrics (not the usual ‘I love you I miss you wo-oh-oh- where’s my mum? lyrics). The singer is Nico, who ended up living with John Cooper Clark, the punk poet, and dying from a fall off a bicycle in…[Read more]

Hi rusty…

I got them from an in-law, who inherited them form his dad..they must date form the 1950s at the latest. Use e-bay carefully, but best get them already honed from a trusted site – I’ve not checked your site yet, but there is a very good US site with excellent advice.

Take care with them. It’s not just the fact that you might be…[Read more]

was that Cosy blowing on an empty cider-bottle as his contribution to the music?

The lead singer seemed to look more like a goat (in every sense) than a goat

that just makes me laff so much, that song, and watching these two po-faced young people singing as though they’re at a concert for the dying at the Isle of Man makes it a classic :lol:

here’s a fragment of a little-known live recording of a classic by a legend from my early teens…

Cilla Black had the nerve to record this too, and it obliterated the superior version, sung here with feeling…

tinks once again brings shame on the board :roll:

does it have a hunting lodge attached??

The story common at the time of Eddy’s coronation was that his Queen Alexandria (also a feature of pubs) wore high neck cuffs to hide the syphilitic sores caught from Ed’s adventures in such an establishment, where he used to engage the Countess of Warwick among others in small talk. :shock: =D>

I’m forming a ‘Happy to Rain on Your Parade’ Society..it’ secret, but I can now reveal that a goodly chunk of f3 is signed up to it :)

was at Castle Rising…interesting castle, but no going back.

The best castles I’ve been to in England are Barrnard Castle (castle, not the town lol), Warkworth and Framlingham.

Oh and Bolton Castle – not in Bolton, but in Yorkshire duh

Arundel sounds a goodie.

Glad you got back from Beachy Head safely, as it’s a well-known spot for people…[Read more]

Went to see a lighthouse recently, funnily enough, but today off to see a castle

My guess is that for many national knickers day is every day.

There are four sizes of knickers – small, medium, large and American, and I feel the last named is a particularly useful form of linen, adapted to making a tent for shelter against the wind in a field and for covering unsightly tables and…[Read more]
