I’ve been away for just over three years and now, for no particular reason, I find myself back here. Have I missed anything?

Musings on the byways of popular culture
Duuuuuude! You’re back!
that or I’ve been cloned
Welcome back.
The blog has become incredibly childish.
Big jobs!
See?

Childish? Not sure I can cope with that. I might have to flounce straight back out!
On second thoughts childish is probably the main reason I’m back.

Now that is the sort of welcome I like
Just got the blu ray of it, and very much looking forward to seeing it again!
David Bowie died, the UK voted to leave the EU, a clown called Trump is the president elect of the USA and Leicester City won the Premier League. Otherwise, not much.
Didn’t Bowie die in the late 70’s?
Time to duck I suspect

I can’t post images either.
The greatest popular music ever made was released in 2014 –
“The Basement Tapes” – Bob Dylan.
In fact, pop music’s been great.
What is all this 15 minute countdown stuff? Is it just for me because the mods remember what an arse I was or does everybody have this cooling off period?
You can edit for fifteen minutes if you miss the deadline you’re stuck with any bollocks you wrote.
Think as it as Mission Impossible although your message doesn’t self destruct. Welcome back.
thanks hubert for the welcome and the info.
My problem is I’m likely to worsen the bollocks quotient if I dwell on it. Shoot from the hip has always been my modus
I guess then you could just ..er.. shoot and leave … fnarr… in my view a much higher bollocks to signal ratio is a good thing..
The England football team lit up both the 2014 World Cup and 2016 European Championship due, in no small measure, to the inspirational Wayne Rooney.
I admit that was wrong about him.
Make sure to catch up on the 12 (TWELVE!) wonderful goals he scored on YouTube.
Wales reached semi finals of the 2016 European Championship
Sorry that’s just too ridiculous isn’t it ?
I changed my name. I used to be Burt Kobain….
My taste in music is a lot better these days, no more Monkeeing around for me.
…and mercifully you’ve stopped pretending that you think the Beatles are overrated.
My current fave is Taylor Swift – that girl sure makes that Les Gibson sing!
You’ve missed 27 haunting, ethereal Nordic chamber jazz albums.
wake me up when number 28 comes by
Everyone is only listening to the Beano album now
And it’s just Dandy.

Can you imagine what his pillowcase looks like in the morning?
And not just because he’s been weeping over the terrible oppression of Little Plum.
Turns out Boys Do Cry.
I expect he was tossing and turning all night.
Evidently not Walter the Softy.
*waves*
always one of my favourite Blancmange songs
What have you missed?
“The Great Drupal Unpleasantness”
Don’t ask.
Also, in recognition of his supreme contributions to all aspects of modern culture all references to the SSHM must be in block capitals.

Maybe we should have some more tabs

I am Sockpuppetus!
Yo! Corgi-baby! We’ve lost some deeply missed souls over the side during the last few years, but the good ship still trundles on, snapped mizzen dragging in the weeds, rolling around in slow but enjoyable circles in the Sargasso while we wait for the newly elected Orange Carbuncle to launch the Final Showdown with China, (who obviously invented all the enviro-shit that is holding back Chrysler and the other Great American Brands from World Domination). Once the fallout clouds have dispersed maybe some of the missing souls will clamber back on board and we can set course again for the land, headed for those elysian fields where The Beatles are still together and no-one cares about X Factor or FaceBook. Welcome on board again!
Thanks, I think. I have had a look around and am trying to work out who may have fallen overboard since I dropped my paddle. Are there any old-timers in disguise with new monikers?
You may recognise Johnny Concheroo as an old-timer once known by the name of a well-known magazine. (Not Razzle.)
Beano Man?
No-one cares about X-Factor – now the G has gone, what’s to care about?
“Have I missed anything?”
Nah – same shit, different website
On the plus side, I haven’t posted One Of These Days by Trespass for at least 8 months
I did make the first leap from Word to Afterword but my lifeboat left before the great hack. Funny to say I was preparing a grand entrance when everything was down and even checked out the faecesbook page a couple of times – my sole venture into unsocial media to date. Having missed my opportunity I decided a more low key re-entry was more in keeping with the year of the BrexTrump.
I hope you brought a note đź“ť from your father and stepmother explaining your abcence!
Yes, I’ve had terrible athlete’s foot. That or I’ve been in prison for 3 years following that unfortunate incident with the mop.
Well at least you’re clean now.
I’m here all week etc.
In the past three years we’ve had a couple of reviews of new Gerry Rafferty albums in “Nights In”, and reviews of a couple of his gigs in “Nights Out”. It’s nice that the great man is still keeping his hand in.
I’ll have to check that out. Is the history from pre-hack here or do I have to restrict my revision to more recent masterpieces of modern prose?
