Sounds like you will be in Spain for your birthday @hunnybunny.

There’s a lot to clear up here from Brian’s trail…

I would be doing the patrons of this establishment a disservice if I didn’t point out that Pearl Carr and Teddy Johnson, unlike Monty Python’s claim, did not win the 1959 Eurovision. Sing Little Birdy, Sing was disgracefully relegated to second place behind The Netherlands, who didn’t even have…[Read more]

Pulp for Eurovision. Imagine Jarvis let loose live on such a stage…

Twiggy will be doing a Eurovision prediction for her usual fee.

My prediction is that UK won’t be last this year, seems like the song might tap into the Eurovision zeitgeist. But what do I know? I still think Pearl Carr and Teddy Johnson were robbed in 1959.

With reference to the Fall video and Leigh Bowery, I reiterate my comment about the sausages.

I thought it was definitely the may  (i.e. hawthorn) blossom. Don’t say now I’ve been doing it wrong all these years.

Mind you, folks round these parts are clearly confused. The other day on the beach we saw somebody dressed for arctic conditions in a huge puffer jacket at the same time as someone (male unfortunately) nude sunbathing.

That’s…[Read more]

Aye. I’ve cast my clout.

(That one will not travel)

BTW, I bumped into Lee Mills on a remote Anglesey footpath yesterday. You know, Bradford City’s first £1m footballer who scored one of the goals against Wolves that sent City into the Premier League in 1999. He was surprised to see me.

Did the mayor of Chicago really say that the Pope was dope? is that a cardinal sin?

(avoids any discussion about Arsenal…)

Well, we are educating people, aren’t we?

We know it’s really like this @brianN.  Some useful techniques for you here.

Hi @abcrazy, see you found the new premises. There a few of us still around, one or two old timers you might know. Some just lurk, coming out when there are free drinks. Others just stick weird stuff on the jukebox. Once in a blue moon there’s actually a post about Angry Birds. Otherwise we moan about how bad our respective governments are without…[Read more]

Twiggy’s friend Colin went to vote in today’s elections, according to the BBC.

Yes, mini-Schnauzers are famous for that look. It can be terrifying. They know something.

Someone fell out of the clown car.

Miss May, a.k.a. The May Queen.

“C’mon daddy, let’s get going, you can’t just sit there all day”

Time for some more dumb quiz answers.

Question: What is the fastest a human being has ever travelled when re-entering the earth’s atmosphere in Apollo 10.

Contestant 1: Pretty fast. 300mph.

Host: I think some cars go quicker than that.

Contestant 2: Yes, it’s definitely more. 500mph.

Contestant 1: Yes, that’s better. It’s near that. Not…[Read more]

Fontaines DC excellent.
