The oil companies have got the power and the money to the point of corruption. Nobody would have to worry about oil in other countries if cheap power was made available to all. It would benefit all except the oil companies and maybe even help end a few wars, who knows? If the economic climate is better in the future, maybe they will release it? Myself, I doubt it, because so much money and power is at stake. Sad really.

Very good !clapping! PS Finally found the other smilies to the left of my screen, out of view until I use the arrow !laughing!

What a lovely post !clapping! Hope that I can live up to at least half those points for my friends, and they for me

Bath? Chippenham?

There used to be a guy did a pretty good "Mack the Knife" in the Lion on Clumber Street. (When it was a pub!) Was it Bobby Darin Mick-4-me?

Ooer radfordred - did it again !! and I was young then! Thanks for that blast from the past. He was lovely and the music is still strong and energising

Thanks for that beefsteak - gorgeous Nick Kamen !! Like the new one for Fosters Twisters too, 'Let It All Hang Out' by John Mellencamp Cool Sounds a bit like Bob Dylan

They seem to have lots of life and spirit in them.... and there are quite a few mixed messages within that video link. Worth a look....cheers lol !cheers!

A good group in their time though never saw them live. Really liked 'My Generation'. Made me laugh because Mum used to tut at them and the song. Roger Daltry played a good role, opposite Twiggy in 'The Little Match Girl', a TV Christmas adaptaton of the fairy story, quite a few years ago now. 2 years later Cliff Rchard had a No. 1 hit with one of the songs from that adaptation - 'Mistletoe and Wine' - great drama, sad yet so many good songs from Roger, Twiggy and others.

And one that I really loved too... ..'Heard it Through the Grapevine' Marvin Gaye Where that gorgeous, young lad puts his 501 jeans into the washer. Great advert !! Ayup, I still remember the lad's face but not his name no1

Ayup mick2me, Been wondering about the 'Little Yellow Spider' song for ages!! Like it so much, I always stop what I'm doing to listen to it. Saw your title and typed in lyrics I could remember - 'hey little snapping turtle', and there it was, the same song by Dehandra Banhart think it was? Never heard of him/her, but catchy tune. !cheers!

Some great ones there Mick2me. A bit of Madness is good for everyone! Will get my son to download some - I'm hopeless

Also meant to add would never have guessed that the black camels are really shadows. Just showed it to my son, and he didn't suss it either - oh dear. doh

Brilliant picture. Couldn't figure which angle it had been taken from. Like the answer - from above.

Started working life at the local Gas Board in the Computerised Accounts Centre - in other words the Gas Bills! Did my own Dad's twice and he blamed me for the bill :-( Think I was on £6-50 per week then but I managed fine :-) I hsd never seen a computer before but they were old-fashioned compared to now!

Agree Planfit and Pemberton, 1st there was Elvis, was big fan and still like him, then there was the Beatles. But......then Dylan and Donovan and T. Rex and Brian Ferry etc etc. Oh love country music too, but still love the Beatles and Elvis. !rotfl! lol

We met at the cinema - he came and sat next to me !laughing!

Hello Frank, your right it was Wrights Coal Tar soap, but any idea what it was for? I haven't used it in years but it was the smelly Carbolic soap i hated lol

Many songs have that affect on me so it's difficult to name just 2, but Those were the Days my Friend....Mary Hopkins always has a nostalgic effect. Still love most of The Beatles earlier stuff to....Saw Her Standing There what a beat !cheers!

Like Reggae but sorry never heard of any of these. Liked Johnny Nash amongst others and love Red, Red wine and others by U2.

Anyone remember that horrible carbolic soap soap, no idea what it was for, maybe nits? Also, Coal Tar soap for spots I think.

Hi there. bought heck of a lot of records in the 60's. Mainly Elvis before the Beatles and after them, and the whole Merseybeat sound, inc. Billy Fury and Gerry and the Pacemakers. This list is a great combination though. Loved doing the twist and listening to Walk on By.....wait on the corner.....hm! Also liked some of the others too. Memories....dontcha just love em?

We were forced-fed Syrup of Figs every Saturday night, whether we needed them or not lol In summer, Camomile lotion covered my hives and Eucalyptus oil kept some of the gnats from biting. What a funny, chalky-pink, smelly girl I was! Lovely!

hi everyone I'm jane finding it hard to make things work
