Guest Anne Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 I can't see to type cos of that bloody light dazzling me I only found him a few weeks ago..so I don't know too much about him. The CD I've got is called Missing You and I love it. I watched some of his DVD's while I was away..but can't remember the titles. I know most years he produces a CD of African music..funds going to Africa. I like his voice and his style... I also love Rod Stewart!! Richard Burton was one of a kind and I loved to listen and watch him act in anything. His voice was amazing. I found David Essex late in life didn't I!! Another one I love to watch is Peter Gabriel.

So far only seen 2 SWMBO has gone back to bed in disgust .I am already in deep doo doo so I don't need any from you.LOL love you any way lots of love IAN Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anne Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 Why you old smoothie you..trying to get back into my good books are you after your rotten remarks. Sending your love helps a wee bit..but I really think you should grovel a bit more before you're forgiven! It's 9:29pm Sunday night here. Must tell you I've stayed up at night to watch meteorites in the past..and I've gone to bed bored to tears..so I know how SWMBO feels. The only time I have seen a great show of them was in Scotland when I was driving by the banks of Loch Lomand years ago, and they were spectacular. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mable-Thorpe 0 Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 Is romance in the air with Ann and Beefsteak? Just an old ladies observation. I say bring back the old crooners like Frank Sinatra, Sammy Kaye, Guy Lombardo, Nat King Cole, Bing Crosby, Johnnie Ray, Eddy Fisher, Perry Como, Pat Boone, Johnny Mathis and Parrot Face Davis just to name a few, nearly forgot the ever immortal Doris Day.

Guest Anne Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 Sorry Rose..you're completely wrong...Beefsteak belongs to SWMBO. Yes..I too like the Golden Oldies but can't remember Parrot Face Davis though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
