What was the number one you refer to? As far as I know he didn’t have a number one single until 1975 when Space Oddity was rereleased.

That’s not Van Morrison – where’s his hat?

I told you Boris would stop this. What a hero!

There’s nothing to worry about here. Boris and company will put a stop to this; he’s against elites apparently.

I would have thought this falls foul of competition law but it’s a long time since I worked in […]

Just looked at the playlist. Some great music but not exactly a deep dive. But I’m sure there’s a place and a (small) audience for it.

It looks a bit like the speciality programmes Mark Lamarr used to do for […]

1649.

Yawn. Early singles were good but most of their debut album is mediocre. 2nd album is worse.

I also saw them support the Smiths but unfair to say they blew Morrissey et al off the stage. As I remember both […]

The Queen
Prince Charles
Prince William

England will fail to qualify for the World Cup

Despicable sentiments. On the other hand, they have improved the lyrics.

I have been playing a lot of Morricone lately and had just put The Good, The Bad & The Ugly on this morning when the news alert popped up on my phone. A bit of a spooky moment but unfortunately I do not have any […]

I really thought this was about a new song by Dylan.

Surely Tranmere would only have played at home every second Friday while the Tube was a weekly show. It’s a nice story but it doesn’t really add up.

I’m retired so lockdown has not made a huge difference to my lifestyle, although all the queueing outside chemists reminds me why I don’t like theme parks and coronaland is becoming one of my least favourite. Not […]

It does seem odd that he does not get a namecheck when he would have been the responsible Minister at the time when many of the policy decisions that led to the problems with preparedness occured.

On the other […]

Captain Scarlet and Stingray were my favourites. I’m pretty sure I can recall an episode of Stingray which took place in a goldfish bowl? And I know there was an episode of thunderbirds in which baby alligators […]
