And keep Mike Read off the top of the charts this weekend?

Hmm

If Mike Read makes one more mention of his 'Jamaican Chums', I might do something rash Angry

Who the fuck says 'chums' anyway!?

OP posts:
ArsenicChaseScream · 23/10/2014 13:52

Or 'buddies'.... Hmm

My great-aunt says "chums". But she's ninety (and Canadian... not sure whether that's got anything to do with the vocabulary).

I seem to remember from his first statement that his Jamaican Chums were safely in Jamaica (implied subtext: where they belong).

Well exactly

Did you see his claim that he was collaborating with the Jamaican Tourism Board?

his first statement that his Jamaican Chums were safely in Jamaica I will take your culture for my song, as long as you don't come with it

FlossyMoo · 23/10/2014 15:14

He has pulled the song

Grin
BuckskinnedAstronaut · 23/10/2014 15:27

No he hasn't, FlossyMoo -- he says that he's asked the record company to pull it, but the record company say that they've said "No". It's still for sale and doing very nicely.

FlossyMoo · 23/10/2014 15:46

Oh pants Sad

BuckskinnedAstronaut · 23/10/2014 15:59

Mike Read must be nearly ninety, though, surely?

ravenAK · 23/10/2014 16:09

The record company are getting a right thumping on twitter, mind you. They've taken their FB down.

ArsenicChaseScream · 23/10/2014 16:25

@AngelAirRecords if anyone wants to join in Smile

I'm a bit clueless - if I retweet someone else's comment, do the record company know about that, or do I have to tweet directly to them?

thisusernameisunavailable · 23/10/2014 17:55

I think as long as they have @AngelAirRecords in the tweet from you or another it goes to them

ArsenicChaseScream · 23/10/2014 17:56

If you retweet a tweet with "@AngelAirRecords" in it they will get that as a notification.

OP posts:
Iggi999 · 23/10/2014 17:58

Thanks! Will get dh on to it tonight as well.

thisusernameisunavailable · 23/10/2014 18:08

raven I cant see anything on their twitter, do they keep deleting them?

ArsenicChaseScream · 23/10/2014 18:18

Tweets TO them won't show on their profile, but will show on a search of them or on their own view of their notifications page.

I had thought Mike Read's 'withdrawal' was terribly cynical.

thisusernameisunavailable · 23/10/2014 18:35

line did you see the facebook convo, where Angelair replied not to believe everything you read on the internet when asked why they had not pulled it when MR requested.
Arsenic cheers, understand a bit more every day Grin

Farage on Bulgarian TV explaining origins of his name
LineRunner · 23/10/2014 20:36

The more this saga goes on, the more I am wondering why UKIP councillors aren't denouncing Farage?

Line Becasue they're all as thick & bigoted as he is Grin
