    Didn't realise you were down that way. If you see a slightly perplexed, dishevelled bloke pushing a screaming boy in an orange pram, you'll know who it is...

    Waitrose wasn't too bad this morning - they're pretty well drilled on these things. At least I hope that's the case as the missus is out tonight and I forgot to buy my tea earlier. Anyway, riveted as I'm sure you all are about the local goings-on, I have rather let this meander off-topic...

    Regarding "My Lovely Horse", when I'm sure I know where he lives, I'll let you know.

    Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle underneath the western skies

    [Not the the boring flatlands of East Anglia, obv.]

    On my Giant MX, let me wander over yonder
    Till I see the mountains rise

    I want to ride to the ridge where the West commences
    And gaze at the Moon till I lose my senses...


    Pappa don't you fence me in.

    I get no kick from champagne.
    Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all,
    So tell me why should it be true
    That I get a kick from UHU ?

    It's way better than sniffing petrol, ya weirdos.

    [Surely more folk have Earworms. We're quite friendly. We won't make much fun of your ludicrous musical tastes.]

    I posted a link somewhere else about this. Common People covered by the Wurzels, it's brilliant. Trouble is my head struggles to sing in a yokel accent.

    Ouch! My poor ears! That is not so much butchering a song as severing an artery and letting it bleed to death.

    I'd never heard of them before and now I am definitely not a fan.

    Don't ban me.

    Sharing the pain hasn't helped..........

    Forgetting/not knowing all the words doesn't help either, it just makes it worse.

    I was thinking you'd lost control there, and I'd need to wait for someone to take me - by the hand - to your residence - with a chainsaw.

    But that's great. Thankyou.

    Listen to The Fall much ?

    Fortunately, after the pain above, my current listening is Tourism by Leftfield. Making Friday afternoon pass with a little bounce...

    Unless you're playing it so loudly the plaster is falling off the ceiling it's still not the same ;).

    There was a gang shooting as a result of a Gangnam style dance off I believe.

    Ich weiss nicht was soll es bedeuten
    Dass ich so traurig bin -

    Das kommt mir nicht aus dem Sinn...
