I’ve never been a big rugby fan but I saw the great Barbarians try by Gareth Edwards against the All Blacks again recently. Great commentary by Cliff Morgan who I can also remember presenting Sport on Four on R […]

Motörhead, Sherwood fuckin’ Forest (as Lemmy described it), north Notts, 2003.
My only experience of Lemmy and co (not really my thing but I thought it was something I should experience at least once) and bo […]

The Ansthruther Fish Bar is as good as the hype. I haven’t tasted fish that tastes so much of the sea as I have there.
I had fish and chips at The Little Fish and Chip Shop in Southwold on a much needed week a […]

Exactly. Look where America’s aggressive foreign policy since his presidency has got the world.

Watched this on Saturday evening and can heartily recommend it. From asking his favourite bands and performers to do fundraising gigs during the presidential race to inviting them to perform at White House garden […]

Having a social diary that is double booked does raise questions about the ‘dull’ persona you regularly purport to have.
Never happens to me.

Keeping my sanity and helping my mum keep hers has probably been my biggest achievement of the year.
Lockdown started almost to the day one year on from us losing my sister to cancer. I know I was still […]

Love Duke Special, I must have seen him play live at least 15 times over the years and own pretty much every record he’s made.

I was rhythm guitarist in a covers band for four or five years in the early 2000s along with Scott on lead guitar, Mark on vocals, Andy on drums and Rob and later Steve on bass. We did loads of punk and ska stuff […]

Merry Christmas one and all from a most infrequent poster on here but one who enjoys the wit and wisdom of all you lot on a daily basis, this thread included.
A lovely day in south Notts which started with a […]

@fentonsteve According to Wiki Field Music was released on 10 January. It’s going on my list anyway.

Quite possibly doesn’t meet the title of the thread because I wouldn’t describe Wales as ‘foreign’ and there’s probably as much English dialogue as there is Welsh, but I really enjoyed the three series of Hinter […]

Yes, I never quite worked out why Fopp moved to the Broadmarsh. Cheaper rent I assume but there must have been a significant drop in footfall.
Rough Trade is OK although they do split the genres more than is […]

Yes I dread to think how much I spent in there over the years. A fortune I suspect but still not enough.
I found a Selectadisc carrier bag recently. I’m tempted to frame it.

I sat and read this thread last night and promptly had a pretty crap night’s sleep, even by my standards. Not even the shipping forecast did the trick last night. I think I was still awake at around 1.30am and, h […]

Great tribute from Liverpool, the video tribute is definitely worth a watch.
There were some great keepers in English football in the 70s and 80s. Clemence, Shilton, Corrigan and Parkes to name just a few.

I can’t say I’m particularly well travelled when it comes to exploring whisky but that in part is due to having stumbled across the Benromach distillery about seven years ago when on holiday up there and hav […]
