Bob Dylan’s pastiche/pisstake of The Beatles.

Charlotte Church was on her hands and knees, wearing a white dress, digging her own grave, searching for a shield. On the journey back to the castle, Charlotte’s white dress was spotless. Strange.

I’m a fan of Traitors but my heart sank when I heard that Alan Carr would be participating. After watching the first episode last night I’ve completely changed my mind and hope he wins. With sweat running down his […]

Ray Stevenson who took the iconic photo states in an interview that Soo Catwoman was peeved about not receiving any royalties for it. He ended up giving her half of his royalties. He also says she didn’t consider […]

In a rare interview she gave in the 90’s she mentioned working on her autobiography. This didn’t materialise but I wish it had. I would like to think The Butterfly Collector isn’t about her. It’s a great song but […]

A striking looking girl who’s iconic image adorns T-shirts, posters, cushions, coffee mugs etc but apparently lived a frugal life. Her son has set up a Go Fund Me page on Facebook to pay for her funeral. RIP Soo Catwoman

Give now the host his claret cup And watch Madeira’s farewell drink Note his reaction acid sharp Should make the cognoscenti think.

Eno – Another Green World. The title track is worth the price of the album alone.

Major: “I knew a woman once, I took her to see India.” Fawlty: “India Major?” Major: “At the Oval.”

I was also going to see the Buzzcocks at Leicester, De Montfort Hall, with Joy Division supporting on a Monday night in 1979. I went out on the Sunday evening and had too much to drink, felt crap all day at work […]

The Walrus Was Paul: The Great Beatle Death Clues by R. Gary Patterson is another good one. I thought I knew all the clues until I read this.

A school friend gave me a first edition copy of the Authorised Biography by Hunter Davies in 1973 when I was 14. This is what started my life long interest in The Beatles. I still have the book and will be re […]

I’m waiting for the Anthology that includes Carnival Of Light.

This is one of the best Beatles books I’ve read and I’ve read quite a few.

Went to buy this, only to be informed by Amazon that I purchased it in June. Will have to get round to reading it one day.

Thanks.

Here’s John Noakes having a go at being the Button Boy, which was a tradition for young Royal Navy recruits until it was discontinued for health and safety reasons. This has to be seen to be believed.

When John Noakes climbed Nelson’s Column without using safety equipment, he was assured by Biddy Baxter that he was insured. Noakes was married with two young children at the time. Some time later he found out […]

I watched it and This Is What She’s Like wasn’t featured.

At least Wales have their own national anthem, and a glorious one it is too, that is played at every sporting event they participate in. England have to put up with the dirge like God Save The King, which is the […]
