dr feelgood at reading top rank

Christ on a bike, Dr Feelgood were fantastic back in the day. I saw them on this tour and even hitchhiked down to Reading Top Rank to see them there (from Oop North), but it's funny how your memory plays tricks as l thought l remembered hitching back on the Sunday afternoon, thinking it was a Saturday gig. I guess l must have taken the Monday off work and came back then, as l was staying at a mates house in Wallingford. Anyway, it was well worth it., although l do regret being generous and giving my t-shirt away a couple of years later to a mate who really loved it.

nigel farage - hitler was right and the bbc

Too right, and the old time comedy was out of order, but at least they were trying to be funny with different standards and levels of humour back in the day, but no-one was on TV saying 'Hitler was right' and 'Gas the Jews' while making hissing sounds, to the extent that (as was reported years ago) one of Nigel Farage's tutors wrote a report with concerns about his racism.

the snail farm don

 I'm all for people using a bit of ingenuity to do over the system by using absurd loopholes (even if they are ex mafia dons), and this has to be read to be believed. A story you would normally find on April 1st. The full article is here

 Once again l went to the local pub yesterday with high expectations. When will l ever learn?

Buzzcocks - Boredom

The Count Five - Psychotic Reaction

benefits street - an update

I was told about this £18,000 better off on benefits story in the pub yesterday by (obviously) a Reform voter, and said it sounded pretty implausible. Turns out, it is.The full article is here.

new pub outfit sorted for today

We decided not to go out yesterday, despite the excellent Manchester United result, so it off out today to the local instead. Despite the light drizzle, l've got my outfit sorted for the stroll down. It'll still be light as l'll arrive just after 3pm, so l'll get full benefit out of it. Lock up your daughters.

jonathan gullis - this is going to end well

As Jonathan Gullis (a corrupt twat) defects to Reform (a party full of corrupt Russian loving twats), it's handy that past messages from Richard Tice are still available. It'll all end in tears.

t.rex - solid gold easy action

On this day many years ago I skived off school to go and buy this single and then went back to our empty house to play it constantly before my hoodwinked parents returned home. I didn't like it as much as their earlier stuff, but it's still an excellent 'bopper' as us cool kids used to say (and yes, obviously l still have it).

bainsy and brummie mick in thailand

These are two regulars at my local, both in Thailand and obviously having a good time. I think Bainsey (Dave) may have had a few too many looking at the tattoo he's just had done. He's also 73, and should be acting his age (as if).

high expectations at the pub part 65656

What If Bob Dylan sang Teenage Dream by Marc Bolan & T.Rex? AI

Love this. The Dylan version gives the lyrics extra gravitas. Think l prefer it to the original, which, at the time was the last T. Rex release l bought for a few years.
