great thread


I wanted to contribute a Pogues album cover with the pope and JFK, but I googled Rum, Sodomy and the Lash and it wasn't that so I thunk on and googled Red Roses For Me and it wasn't that either. I don't think I've made this up. My uncle was a parish priest in West Cork and he would drive me around the back roads and we would see the pope and JFK over people's fireplaces and I used to think about the Pogues. So can anyone source my memory?

Quote from latest Rankin you may enjoy:


"...It had taken him ages to buy his first CD player, and even now he preferred vinyl. Siobhan said it was because he was 'wilful'.

'Either that or I've just not got the herd mentality,' he'd argued back. These days, she had an MP3 player and bought stuff online. He would tease her by asking if he could take a look at the album cover or lyric sheet.

'Your're missing the big picture,' he'd told her. 'A good album should be more than the sum of its parts.'

Asset, you given up? I was poo at it too and then got it: Keef said -

Slosh is your uncle!;-)

That, MP, is quite astounding.


Btw albumen and women (that joke never gets old) rateyourmusic may often appear first in google images, but as soon as we deep link to them they pull the image and it looks suddenly like we can't do the image linking thing. So use the next image in future.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
