A solar panel on the roof maybe !

Homburg is a great story. However the story song that I can't abide at any price is that appalling dirge 'Where do you go to my lovely?' by the equally appalling Peter Sarstedt. Did anyone REALLY look like that ?

Yes, I'm certain I read once that Dave Clark owned the RSG footage. I think it was due to his association with Kathy McGowan that enabled him to do it.

I don't mind good pop songs from any era, but it's the banal mind numbing stuff like Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep and other such ridiculous so called 'novelty' songs. This has developed into a good topic, as long as music snobbery doesn't creep in. Music provides something for most people. Those who say they dislike any form of music must be bereft of emotion. They should check their pulse !

Sorry CT, I can't agree re the Pearly Spencer lyrics. I think they're very raw, emotional and very true to life. I love songs with a story.

Perhaps the police haven't a car capable of catching him !

People interpret songs differently. There's a Frankie Miller song Long way home which Mrs Fly gets a totally different impression of that I do .

One is a game, and the other is a discussion !

Maybe that's over simple Den ! LOL

I wasn't blaming you in particular Compo, but it's become rather infuriatingly prevalent lately. Also rather tedious is the unnecessary habit of ending a post with ones name, when we can all see the coloured disc or avatar. Just what's the point ? Keep it simple without the need for over familiarity.

Sorry chaps, I'm getting pee'd of with the use of 'just sayin'. It's become very prevalent lately......... Just f*****g saying !

Two of my favourites, although very sad are .... Sea of Heartbreak by Don Gibson, and Always on my Mind by Willie Nelson. Also, The Rose, by Bette Midler !

Brilliant Compo. Check out some Frankie Miller song lyrics on Long Way Home CD. Awesome. Bob Segar stuff too.

It'll say 'Not Read' under their name !

Top right hand side. It states you, and the other member in the conversation. Underneath are the times !

Not read I'm afraid. B, you've had pms, look at the top.

Well there's nowt as strange as folks eh ! A newbie posted once, and I knew it was someone from FFGS, so I replied to their request via pm, as some details were personal. That was six months ago, and the PM hasn't even been read yet. This is probably the third time this sort of thing has happened. Very odd. So much for forum etiquette !

Glad to see Thomas Cook's shop in Poole open yesterday. Well done Hays Travel.

My day was enhanced yesterday, by seeing Thomas Cook's Travel Agents shop in Poole open and back in business yesterday. Albeit with a Hays Travel A board outside, but who cares. At least the staff are ok.

Simply turn it up !

C&A were still operating in Switzerland, Italy, Germany and France a month ago.

Hopefully he's basking in unbroken sunshine, convalescing with a quadruple G & T in his hand.

Remember seeing Marina in an episode of Pointless a few months ago. Facially, she looks exactly the same. An amazingly funny lady. She used to live in Thorne, north Notts at one time.

So sad. She was brilliant as Pearl, trying to keep track of Howard's antics. Always one step ahead !

The little white dot in the top right hand corner of the tv screen, immediately before adverts come on when watching ITV. I used to think it was an indication to put the kettle on !
