I was thinking of starting off a thread on this whole subject , but I couldnt be arsed . I thought someone was going to do it quite soon anyhow .



I must admit to being a bit partial to the 1992 Genesis masterpiece "Fading Lights " from We Can't Dance .... a nod to the days of Trick Of The Tail and Wind and Wuthering .... nice .



Fish Out Of Water by Chris Squire .... now theirs a good'n

Now Eliza, how do you keep the nan bread good for the next day? I always find it's gone hard.

Lol, I used to love House of Elliot too. I think it was all the art deco sets and the amazing clothes - love the 20s and 30s.


And evaporated milk with tinned fruit cocktail was a real treat for afters when I was a kid, mum had to make sure me and my sister both got a glace cherry or one of us would be unhappy

Oh God..... The X-Factor auditions....


I know, I know, I hate myself.


Every year I promise myself I won't and then MrJ is out and I think I'll just have a quick look and the next thing you know it's the end of a disappointing day in London and Simon's already stormed out once, because it's all just too bad, and then the last audition of the day... it's a cheeky, shy-looking, primary school teacher... the judges aren't expecting much...but what's this? He's brilliant! Simon gives him a standing ovation and tells him it's the best first audition he's EVER heard... And I'm crying....


I am so ashamed.

Anna - heroin addiction/slight recovery/addiction/recovery of some sort/recovery but always chasing the high.

Anna, I'm not saying that's better than X-Factor. No not at all. Nor that it's any more socially productive.

But you never bastard well know, do you?

    • I normally vote Lib Dem and will continue to do so.
    • the reason Tories have lost votes is because they have lost trust primarily. the voters didn't vote for what the Tories did, but what they promised. you can't blame the voters for the outcome, just because they voted for the party. Labour are in a position of influence so we will have to see what they do.  Reform are there, as quite a presence should Labour continue to fail. It feels as if we are on a very thin line
    • I agree with that The voters authorised strong austerity in 2010 and kept voting for it for 14 years - for that reason alone, given Labour have been in power for only months I can't find my else able to equate them as bad as each other. Yet. It may happen and given Labour's poor decision making and comms to date I wouldn't be surprised if they end up that way Problem is the voters say they want one thing (lower prices/better public services/things working) but then don't reward any government that tries to deliver -  and they explicitly said they wanted higher prices with Brexit and lower public services by voting Cons in for 14 years - so they got what they wanted, they just don't like the reality Whoever is elected now has to find a way to address those years of underinvestment and diminished growth - there is no painless way out. But blaming immigration for everything (Reform speciality) is only making everything worse
    • That’s good to know, but it just wasn’t clear to me.
