Apologies if I have missed anyone. Let me know if you spot any omissions 😊

@ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf the Facebook page is called New wave generation- it posts retro videos everyday, quite often really good tracks.

They try to tell me we don’t belong
But That’s alright we’re millions strong
Here are my people
Here are my crowd
(80s)

Hugs, whipper. That sounds like an awful day.
Good luck with the results.
Points do have to be earned, though.

Flea, sorry for forgetting it was you. I won't again! 3 more sleeps!

Honey, I'm not a massive fb-er, but I might have a look.

Have a good day, all 💋💕

Crazy nights, Kiss

@WhipperSnapperSteve sorry about your day.

Defo join us for the Christmas do, you'll probably get everything & wipe the floor with us 🤣

Did any of you ever see the film Skin Deep? Good soundtrack. The theme tune was Falling out of love by Ivan Neville

Had a phone call first thing this morning to go for my seconds today, so have had an hour's drive to the county hospital and just been stabbed in the other arm!

I have a piercing I've been waiting nine months for happening on Thursday so three piercings in a week, talk about feeling like a pincushion!!

I'll have all the blood results by Friday afternoon at the latest so at least I'll know if anything's amiss in my blood work shortly.

Points and inebriated Steve I doubt are going to be a good match!! 😜😂 Need to decide what booze to buy hmmm.

Annnd I have some right evil lyrics lined up, but here's an easy one!

"See, my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle, that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
His body's too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give"

Ooh that’s Tracy Chapman - Fast Car.

I’d better get thinking of some lyrics if you lit are already planning! I just bumble along.

@Fleamaker123 yes that was Kiss.👍🎉

I really should have added 😘!

Yes, Honey, spot on.

"No one likes looking at you
Your lack of ego offends male mentality
They need your innocence
To steal vacant love and to destroy"

Bonus point for naming the female vocalist...

Fingers crossed for you Whippersnapper 🤞🏼😘
Lyrics for us all...

I never thought I'd see
A time when you would be
So far away from home
So far away from me
Just think of all the moments that we spent
I just can't let you go, for me you were meant
And I didn't mean to hurt you, but I know
That in the game of lovin', you reap what you sow
70s

And they were wild and free
Happy as could be in America
They were wild and free
Everything to see in America, America
1990

Fingers crossed for you Whippersnapper 🤞🏼😘 Lyrics for us all...

I never thought I'd see

So far away from me
Just think of all the moments that we spent
I just can't let you go, for me you were meant
And I didn't mean to hurt you, but I know
That in the game of lovin', you reap what you sow
70s

Evening everyone  to everyone going through difficult times

'That's Rose Royce wishing on a star'
That's correct @shinynewapple2020 🤩⭐️🤩⭐️🤩⭐️🤩⭐️🤩⭐️

I know you come a long way, Baby
But you don't need that heart of stone, no
You proved that you could do it, do it, Baby
You could make it on your own

Still I couldn't help but notice
That new distant look in your eyes

Hot chocolate you don't remember me do you?

Hello all, having trouble sleeping after having trouble staying awake this afternoon

I know you come a long way, Baby
But you don't need that heart of stone, no
You proved that you could do it, do it, Baby
You could make it on your own

It came on in the supermarket earlier.
I only fucking teared up! As if it's not bad enough with the whole masks/glasses fogging up combo. I couldn't see a damn thing.
