Barnsley is exotic to me, but I'm actually off to Barbados.

If I remember correctly, your grandmother lives there? If you give me her address I'm happy to hunt her down find her and tell her that her favourite grandson is doing fine. Up to you?

Barbados is alright, but no chance of bumping into legends like Boycott, Clough, Parkinson or Trueman down there.

You remember half-correctly, it's my mother that lives in Barbados. Her address is 606 Stay The Hell Away Avenue.

Happy travels.

Mother/grandmother. Basically the same thing...

Thanks, flower. Look after this place for me. Keep Galted in check. He can go a bit rogue when I'm not around to keep him under control.

Also how she signs off the birthday cards she sends to Duty.

I'll do my best. I'll try to keep him away from any disreputable ladies of the night.

This means I've already failed. Don't tell Tino, he'll be devastated.

F*ck you, Julius.  She's no lady.

Unmichaelising fist of the early afternoon.

Had an interview. Wasn't about the role I had applied for but for something probably more interesting. Let's see what happens next.

Sicond.

Best of luck LiW. Keep dreaming big and you'll be a top gigolo like Jules in no time.

Fingers crossed for you LIW

Don't wish to turn this a Golden Girls episode but I shall reserve two fingers for crossing purposes as well.

Not sure if this would be appreciated anywhere else but in the last 3 days I have knocked out 2 wasps. Surprisingly glass jawed.

Thought Tino was the only one who got off on invertebrates.

It was meant for him but I see he has buggered off on holiday

seanmichaels wrote:It was meant for him but I see he has buggered off on holiday

It was a weak play on the 'knocked out' but yep, forgot that he was on holiday. Think he'll be gutted to miss, not just a michaels post, but a michaels post on anthropods.

Very well, I shall accept the fist and the post michaels michaelsing michaelsing unmichaelsing.

Slow slow days. Sicond.

Must be the enthralling debate going on on the golf boards that's keeping everyone off here.

Looks like Julius has sorted it out, the crowds are sure to come flocking back now.

I'm not Ayman al-Zawahiri.

l*l out loud

When I first saw a reference to this I was wondering what Zahawi had done now

We'll carry them over for the next Ashes, Guildford.

I'll be checking that you do. 

Fist.

No news on the interview yet the B@ST@RDS (I won't be saying that if I get the job, it is a great opportunity and potentially much better than the one I just lost)

B*stards.

I suspect that there may be a number of vacancies opening up where I work as I'm close to breaking point with the incompetence that surrounds me and am considering going a bit DAVE with a hatchet and hammer.

I suspect that RiCK and super will be recommending that you delete that piece of evidence.

The colleagues are probably safe at the moment as I'm still working from home and can't be arsed to travel in to the office for  a rampage.

Clearly your emotions are running high on the matter.

I was there last night. He did a lap of honour carrying a baby.

There's a lady judoist in the Commonwealth Games called Likmabam. I suspect her parents wanted a boy.

Ungalteding fist.

Fist. What's going on? Where are you guys?

PJ - what's the reaction Down Under to Judith Durham's passing? Believe she was still fantastically and rightly regarded in her home country. Not forgotten here but mainly just remembered by old duffers like me. Brilliant singer with a wonderfully clear voice. Very attractive too at her peak in a girl next door way.

Sicond. Morning Guildford.

Timely that you should mention Judith Durham. The news was a big shock even though we knew she had struggled with her health in recent years. We used to sing "Morningtown Ride" from the ABC Songbook in my early days in primary school. I was 6 at the time. I was always intrigued by the line "many miles away". I had this sense that the world (and the continent too) was a very big place and the idea of a place named Morningtown left a happy impression on me.

I like Georgy Girl, World of Our Own and I'll Never Find Another You probably the most. She had a pure and beautiful voice and was a kind and caring person according to those close to her. I liked her look too. So sweet and innocent. I had a very nice school teacher (who looked a bit like her) and I can only remember positive and happy memories at that time.

The Carnival Is Over used to scare me as a child... there's something sad and ominous about that song to my mind. I somehow associate it with the Beatles' Rooftop Concert and Woodstock to a certain degree (looking back) as the end of an era.

They just had Keith Potger on a TV show here. He said that Judy was a youtube fanatic who often stayed up until the wee hours scouring music videos. All of the band members got to talk to her by phone or visit her at her bedside up until the afternoon of last Friday. Although she was in and out of consciousness, they were told by the nurse that she could hear them as they reminisced about old times, their success and the love, peace and happiness they brought to many people in the ever-changing times of the 60s.

Galted apologises for his absence, but he is currently on a third person cruise with the wife, kid and in-laws. Today's bickering took place in La Rochelle.

I'm not Judith Durham Olivia Newton-John.

Oh no, ONJ too. First two great cricketers and now two of our singers.

JuliusHMarx wrote:I'm not Judith Durham Olivia Newton-John.

Don't know whether I'm more shocked that she's dead or that she was 73.

I thought she was a bit older. Not too shocked as she'd fought cancer for a long time, but quite saddened as I was a fan.

Yep. Xanadu's one of the great pop songs.  Also like Silvery Rain back in the day.

Let's get phystical.

If not for you.
