Watching Dept Q on Netflix just now as I remember the original Danish series being very good.Seems like the storyline is similar but set in Edinburgh rather than Copenhagen and the humour is hi-viz.Centres round a very rude and arrogant English cop(don’t suppose you ever came across one of those @hunnybunny?) living in Scotland.Only 1/2 hour into…[Read more]

Can’t say I have @desperate-dan though the name did trigger off a long forgotten childhood memory.You might find this hard to believe but I was quite cheeky as a nipper.Anyway there was an older boy who used to visit our neighbourhood called Dougie Taws and I used to shout “Doug the Thug!” whenever I saw him(from a distance of course).However one…[Read more]

I get emotional watching the news and if there’s an item about child neglect/abuse I have to switch off due to a mixture of rage and sadness.I could not have been a police officer.More from The Montgolfier Brothers later I think who seem to write a lot of songs about loss and regret though Roger Quigley who wrote most of the lyrics was quite a…[Read more]

Never mind just seen your comment on walk through page.I agree with @hallieginsb.

What happened to yourscore @desperate-dan?

Of course I didn’t pay her anything.Are you mad?

Brian
You did not pay her anything?

Now before you change channel this isn’t the usual silly bollox I like to play.If Adele hasn’t given this song a little credit for Skyfall she should be ashamed of herself.You might need tissues for this one.https://youtu.be/KqQXg847coc?si=fht6YlqhiXHsCUCE

Rain on today might have a go at the Challenge but Rivelino’s gutters will have to wait.

I used to clean Pele’s windows.

No spilling of beans Bunny you must use that forensically sharp ex-copper brain of yours(is that a contradiction in terms?)

John Charles what a legend brilliant centre- forward,brilliant- centre back and was a massive success in Italy.Best Welsh player ever?All round top bloke as well by all accounts.

Come on Brian, spill the beans on wife window cleaning

On Football:
Cardiff City bought a few houses (obviously nice) where I was bought up
Bobby Ferguson and Jim Eadie lived next door and John Charles around the corner
Remember them so well…

Ironic to think they were such a rarity back then.I can remember two very distinctly from around that period and they were both very good players .Albert Johanson of Leeds Utd(Dirty Leeds as my Derby Co. supporting uncle always calls them with relish) and Clyde Best(George’s identical twin brother) who graced West Ham’s colours.

No offense taken @briann . Of course, I have no idea what you are talking about. Football games from 75 years ago?

Can’t imagine rude or offensive scenarios going through your head Mrs Bunny

Unlike The Fall not quite a full alphabet from the boys(not surprising given 30+ studio albums v 7).No X so we go staight to Y or as @desperate-dan would say “Why???”https://youtu.be/JkhrOjLD1f0?si=oe_ksnpZFrfuWf0f
