We don’t half whip through these threads, it feels like it was just started and we’re past page 25 already.
Someone ought to start sucking up, eh honey?

Correct to the Frog Chorus. It was in the charts Dec 1984. No Christmas hats on the video I just watched though. 🐸

Now this mountain, I must climb
Feels like the world upon my shoulders
But through the clouds, I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder

I hear a lot of stories, I suppose they could be true
All about love and what it can do for you
High is the risk of striking out, the risk of getting hurt
And still I have so much to learn

Sharkey not Sharksy
Isn't that banksy's cousin ?
Honeyroar · 27/12/2020 23:01

Thought you said Clarice, not Caprice. Thought you might be watching Silence of the lambs too!

@Honeyroar

Turn down your venom little elf!
I can not begin to describe the ways you have irked me!

Honeyroar · 27/12/2020 23:04

Cannot begin - if only!! You never stop describing the ways I’ve irked you. Usually got pips in though, haven’t they!!

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 27/12/2020 23:07

You have no idea of my restraint

midgeghost · 27/12/2020 23:09

I a, guessing your restraint is metal chain links ?

Honeyroar · 27/12/2020 23:09

That’s true, it’s never been demonstrated.🤣

CoffeeBeansGalore · 27/12/2020 23:13

Correct to Foreigner and Fergal Sharkey 👍😊

Can you imagine when this race is won
Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders, we’re getting in tune
The musics played by the, the mad men
(80s)

CoffeeBeansGalore · 27/12/2020 23:17

I think that you're afraid to look in my eyes
You look a little sad, boy, I wonder why
I follow you around but you can't see
