You won't have heard of this guy yet, but you will. I don't often spot a hit before it's released, but this one is going to be big.

You might have already heard it on a BBC iplayer ad. There's an acoustic guitar version too.

Now now Woof, don't be so judgemental.


I personally thought it was a rather pleasant, upbeat and refreshingly catchy score from a slighty bohemian young man. I did notice however that the young musician is called 'Wouter'. I thought it prudent to do a little bit of background checking after I registered the fact that 'Wouter/Walter' maybe an arsehole.


It turns out I was correct.....he is an arsehole.


Wouter, the lead singer is in fact Dutch but that doesn't excuse him from the fact that his most successful release is called 'Breezy' that consists of the usual 'had a really funky night out, why not have a Jam to see the morning off'.




After viewing this, I could easily picture myself pushing drawing pins into his gums.

OKAY


I gave ol' Wouter w@nk clog chops a second look.


Some points to note.



1. I apologies to Matt Bianco, you are far far better


2. The girl with the hundred volt hair-do , Aimee Whitehouse's cousin ?


3. 'had a really funky night out ( at church of Scientology), why not have a Jam to see the morning off'.


4. Pins & razors are too good


5. Have a nice day



OHhh I'm so gruuuumpy today! though Mrs W**F returns later so she should sooooooooooothe me down.




Grrrr



W**F

I should probably qualify my OP. If this song were a share, I would buy it now. But I'd be planning to sell it in about two months time. It has the catchy get-under-the-skin qualities to make it a one-hit wonder, but the lyrics too repetitive to make it a long term classic. And using the word 'crazy' twice suggests he has a limited English vocabulary.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
