  1. I blame Cheeta.
  2. This is too much fun. I can't wait for Mr Carnell to wake up. Here's what I'm pretty sure he'd say: "An Italian? Really? I've said this before, but I'll keep saying it till I'm blue in the face. We HAVE Italians. Lots. Il Mirto - Melbourne Grove Si Magia - Forest Hill Road Case Smerelda - towards Nunhead Il Giardino - opposite Peckham Rye station Locale - East Dulwich Road The Gowlett and the Actress do pizzas There is another new Italian opening on Bellenden Road. AND, to top it off, the two things you've suggested....Bella Pasta and Zizzis....are NOT Italians. They serve some vague approximation of cod-Italian pre-cooked, packet sauce slop. The have about as much relation to Italian food as a horse and cart to a Ferrari. Please, stop it now before I explode in a mess of puttanesca sauce!"
  3. Completely wrong. Harrison was my crush which led on to a love of guitarists generally. Laine studied flamenco which gave him a certain je ne sais quoi, but never a pash.
  4. Because he was in Wings from first to last, and more importantly was the other person, along with Linda, who recorded BOTR in Lagos. McCullough, English, etc, were in the group for certain periods but were not formative in BOTR. See how miffed I am - I've started a sentence with because!
  5. Just watched an documentary on BOTR - McCartney sycophantically interviewed by Dermott O'Leary. In 40 odd minutes, the musical knight managed not to make a reference to Denny Laine once. Ooh - I'm seething.
  6. Yeah I just heard that too. This is what the beeb have put out: If you listen to Danny Baker on Saturday mornings, you'll know he's said on air that he has a health issue at the moment and will be presenting some weeks but not others. Well today Danny wanted to give some more information to you via his Facebook page. We've pasted the full message from him below. I know this will come as quite a shock. But as you can see from his message, he's in good spirits. So some Saturdays over the next few months he will be raring to go and will be on his 5 live show as normal and other weeks we'll be giving Danny a rest. I am sure you will all join me in wishing him all the best for the months ahead. Danny's message on Facebook reads: Hello cats and kittens, Apologies for the cloak and d. over recent weeks. However as it appears this is going to continue for the forseeable I really ought to offer up some sort of breadcrumbs trail as to what's going on. (As you know I am queasy about introducing vulgar real life onto the vaudeville stage so let's keep this crisp.) After a pretty mouldy diagnosis about a month back I finally begin chemotherapy on Monday with further radiotherapy from January. Yes radiotherapy; can you beat it? This being so, the old treehouse baggy pants will be donned but sparingly. Once the quacks have soundly thrashed this thing I shall return like a rare gas and as if out of a trap. In the meantime I am watching Tommy Steele box sets (and has there ever been a more lying title to a film than TS's "It's All Happening"?) and urge you all to keep yakking up a storm and laugh extra loud at the incumbents. Thank you for all the best wishes and concern from those who suspected as much about my "condition" and by all means keep ringing up Baylen and Amy to demand more and more Atomic Rooster and Spooky Tooth records. So. Manly handshake. Walk right on. In the words of King George, "What what and there it is..." DB
  7. All Saints Day? or Perhaps Boris has read that this is the saddest day in the year and he wants to cheer us up?
  8. Noooo, Jah. 'Let me roll it' is a fab track. And anything with Denny Laine in is alright in my book.
  9. Seen Jaws Drunk Tequila Had a tattoo Won an egg and spoon race
  10. Dear Silverfox My MP doesn't like gingers. I feel that she can't possibly represent my interests with such prejudices. How do I get her impeached? Yours PGC
  11. Australian Come Dancing season begins. Monty does Flamenco
  12. Well if you're gonna quote the Bible, you jolly well should, young Ridgley! Isaiah 6 and Revelation 4 just to be going on with.
  13. Oh Woof, darling, as if one needed an excuse to drink more: dentine delights the dangers of red wine being, of course, that it takes the brain a while to catch up that you were talking about chenin blanc! Ignore the above - as you were.
  14. Here you go jaybee: ED's finest sporting questions
  15. Phew, buggie - I thought I was going mad.
  16. Sorry Santerme - you can't get away with that. It's "smiley". :-$
  17. The deal is not cutting the hair - not wearing a turban, so I think their exemption is somewhat dodgy. Don't see Monty Pannesar not wearing a helmet - he uses a patka.
  18. I think they must have noticed how much the dolls houses cost. Made me want to scream a little too.
  19. I've been wondering that. Doesn't look terribly official - I wonder if it is some high jinks?
  20. I watched this last night. First chap lives in Lambeth Walk. Don't know yet where others are from but they all seem to have local accents. Shaping up to be a really bitchy contest.
  21. My 16 year old lost a week's EMA because she was five minutes late at the beginning of school. It is a school-imposed criteria - don't see why other colleges can't follow suit.
  22. Did you say two?
  23. Ah, the sun has just come out.
  24. "Lol how Anal are you lot!!" Why do you think it's called Farmers?
