I do not and have NEVER sucked up to Her Pantriness. Who, once again, looks gorj this evening!

Oh the irony - I'm in first day of the holiday mode. A magnificent combination of exhaustion and unwashed hair coupled with the washed out look of someone who has just watched the Scotland Wales Rugby game with their heart in their mouth.

I'll make an effort to scrub up for tomorrow.

Don't bother on my account Your Pantriness. I'm all for holiday garb!

Aw I love This is not a love song and PIL. Darn it.

[quote NeedToKnow101]@MNerGoneRogueAgain - I held Billy Bragg's tiny baby. [/quote]
Awwww!

And yet you never brought that up during all the one upmanship vying for the 'most suck-ups to the rich and famous' trophy????

Is that as cute as it sounds? Or are you in fact a renowned baby-napper?

Interested in this thread?

You don't have to take this crap etc is Style Council Walls Come Tumbling down
YES!

And you just slid in in time to get full points, shiny. Well done!

I was surprised no one got that one!

That's NWA Fuck da Police, I think?
Yes. And yes to Siouxsie, Pantry.

@NeedToKnow101

Can I interrupt the lyrics fest to ask; has anyone watched Finding Alice? And is it the biggest pile of shite you've ever seen?
That's such a shame. I REALLY liked the first one. Should I not bother with the rest then?

Well, it's not like I didn't give you the opportunity....

NeedToKnow101 · 13/02/2021 20:07

It's true. I've got so many C2Fs to choose from, that one slipped my mind..
He was friends of the owner of a restaurant I worked in.. (Bob Dylan also famously went there, and embarrassed himself - but I wasn't working that day).

At the time I was a big Billly Bragg fan, so I was very chuffed to cradle his cute cockney baby in my arms. 😍

MNerGoneRogueAgain · 13/02/2021 20:09

Tell us the bob Dylan story!!!!!

NeedToKnow101 · 13/02/2021 20:09

If you liked the first one Rogue, maybe you'll like them all. I just found it really weird and pointless and random and didn't really see the point of it. Same for episode 2.

Honeyroar · 13/02/2021 20:12

I couldn’t get past episode 1 of Finding Alice. I think it came after The Serpent and It’s a Sin, so couldn’t stand up. And Joanna Lumley and Nigel H get on my nerves nowadays - just retire will you, you one trick ponies! Currently watching A company of witches, which is hard work, but husband loves vampire shows and watches a lot of crap for me (especially now I’m always home!)

Honeyroar · 13/02/2021 20:14

I read that wrong - thought you’d HAD Billy Bragg’s baby. Now that would win the trophy (still a few threads to go until the next awards night - possibly achievable..)

NeedToKnow101 · 13/02/2021 20:15

@MNerGoneRogueAgain

Tell us the bob Dylan story!!!!!

Basically he ate there once and was being all uppity and said to the waitress, 'do you know who I am?' Well she didn't and just gave him a bollocking for being rude. It's immortalised on the wall outside. (See pic).

Finding alice is the high spec house and the dead husband, yes?

I REALLY liked the first episode.

So good to have something to chat about in the void. The total absence of lyrics being posted.

Honeyroar · 13/02/2021 20:18

Love that! Especially the sign. We needed it on all the aircraft!

MNerGoneRogueAgain · 13/02/2021 20:18

That's so cool, needtoknow

No-one gets my lyrics; they're too niche. I've given up.

Yes it is. What did you like about it??????? 😱😱😱😱😱 i thought you had better taste I didn't really

I'm with Pantry and Honey. And yes especially after it's a sin and the serpent, it just doesn't cunt the mustard. Can't wait for the new Line of Duty though.
