Nice wee contretemps in Road General over a resurrected thread 'Amazing help from a stranger'. Dunno how to post a link to. Couple of the usual suspects swinging away.

Used to live down my end of the world, did Mr. Bowie. They've even stuck a massive 'Ziggy Stardust' lightning stripe on the pavement in the High Street as a tribute.

Aye well, in the absence of a Josh alike obergruppenführer wielding the bat/ban stick, perhaps Boys Keep Swinging becomes the new All Kicking Off / Popcorn thread?0

Yes, that was a given. Perhaps you should delete that post?

Have you mentioned the Bowie bandstand being listed or whatever?0

Marvellous, that’s what I like to see. Good to know councils are appreciative of more modern culture.Stevo 666 wrote:

It's a bit of an average bandstand, history aside. Here's some other local stuff which is quite interesting:Veronese68 wrote:

They've revived the old Beckenham Arts Lab the Bowie set up and moved it to the Old Mansion in Beckenham Place Park:Veronese68 wrote:

The original Arts Lab was at the old Three Tuns pub on the High St, unfortunately it's changed to a Zizzis so the Bowie plaque is now attached to the outside of a pizza/pasta joint.

That’s good, nice to have a bit of culture on your doorstep. Great thing about living in a civilised part of the world rather than some sleepy hovel in the boondocks.Stevo 666 wrote:They've revived the old Beckenham Arts Lab the Bowie set up and moved it to the Old Mansion in Beckenham Place Park:

How true, no wonder they get so bored out there in Banjo country. That said, I'd be fine if anyone wanted to start threads about local bands from the sticks, like say The Proclaimers or Altered Images.Veronese68 wrote:That’s good, nice to have a bit of culture on your doorstep.

It appears we have a bullshitter according to this guy.
Surely someone will come to said bullshitter's defence?

Thank fook for that link Bally. That'll stop the 'lets have a mundane conversation about mundane things' to wind Pinno up.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -
The flouncing, flakey bloke didn't have a sense of humour.
A quick Google and he would have found a thousand threads on Dork discs.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -
