Yeah all manc-y


Someone down south hears more than two northern accents and next thing you know the whole station is rife with it



Tsk tsk atticus. Much to discuss 6 music about and you choose that.



(mark and lard should be back together tho )


Of the norvners, I'm a fan of the keaveney and the laverne

Because clearly northerners couldn't possibly know anything about anything could they?


My picks: Craig Charles Funk & Soul Show on Saturday night. Huey's brilliant show on a Sunday arvo. I have to say I find Lauren Laverne annoying but haven't worked out why. I'm pretty certain it's not her accent however.


10 years old this weekend,

but when does this happen exactly? In all my time listening to the station I've never hear anyone say "I know what I'm talking about as I'm a Norvenor". Or anything like it

I'm gonna side with Atticus at a general level (not Radio 6). Mancs banging on about their unique contribution to music


Stone Roses, one decent album. massively MASSIVELY, M A S S I V E L Y overated

Happy Mondays - joke band

New Order/Joy Divison - the latter (or earlier if you like, we're ok for one album too) New order, mmmm, in all honesty

Slaughter and the Dogs - I ask you

Oasis - if anyone thinks Oasis are better than Blur they need a fucking ear transplant

The Smiths - yes, fair enough




Edited 'cos i forgot Oasis

Sooo, Simply Red are argubaly the 2nd best band from Manchester


Scousers win THIS one hands down.

Rosie - on the whole, what's to disagree with?


I take issue with his ambivelance around New Order, but he gives props to Smiths and says Oasis/Stone Roses are overrated and Happy Mondays are a joke band


I can't see anything false or malicious in any of that (and I say that as someone who has all of the Stone Roses albums)

Ah, and all becomes clear.


Lets think, Manchester, bound to be some more pluses that the usual ones quoted, they gave us Elbow, first album was terrific and I've liked most of their output since, though still a bit confused as to how and when they had National Treasure status bestowed upon them.


Badly Drawn Boy, the Verve (ok, black mark there), I was rather partial to the Inspirals back in the day and quite liked their new stuff on Music 6 recently. A Guy Called Gerald, one of the better ones from that era/genre.


Ooh, George Formby!!

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
