DOCTORS- Letherbridge is full of bent coppers - and we are in danger of developing Iatrophobia...g

[Raahh]

(that's a fear of Doctors)

Hmmm...no need to be quite so rude. Everyone will say "ooh well done".

No don't Ruhma. No more chances.

Got to love a GP going out of their way to visit their patient anywhere they may or may not need them😬

😁 that was the first thing I said.

Not at all sure on the motivational pep talk leading to a slagging off the head of department no matter how rude and unbearable they’ve been.

Let's hope she never needs a reference.
I don't cheer people on when they do this (on telly) - it's cringey and unpleasant.

I missed today live, so I am going to catch up now. .
Started well- this deluded arts student thinks Princess is great

Al gets involved in a lot of protest type things. They don't always end well.

I keep thinking about Princess- because the is not on the credits, and Scarlett (who has not been in it as longis). It makes me wonder if the character was only meant to be temporary / for the Sutton Vale stuff- but they've decided to keep her. Now they don't know what to do with her. She had a pretty mean character- and now they seem to be wanting to 'redeem' her- and ignore all the shady stuff that was hinted at before.

If Princess is wearing one of her designs, mayb she ought to stay incognito. It all clashes nicely.

It's taking me ages to watch this- and now the fashio show has gone all Cinderella/fairy godmother whilst they sort out Fashion show dress.

Oh no- drunk singing date

The rash would be barely visible with all the lights/dry ice anyway.

At least Jose took Ruhma the whole bunch of roses this time.

Say no Ruhma!

Rosacea woman was quite rude, even if her boss was a cow.

Ruhma should trust her instincts- if she goes on another date, he's bound to get drunk again.
And she will end up being serenaded by his whole dodgy songbook.

My dad used to sing "Oh my darling Clementine" to me when I was a small child. I am astounded to realise I can remember almost all of the words.
And also the tune (which drunk date man could not)

Yes, the tune was a bit off.
I caught part of Hollyoaks the other day, a group of 'young' people on a bus -I'm guessing they were meant to be mid 20 (actors probably in their 30s though)- were singing 'Daisy, Daisy'- It made me think that it would be very unlikely that anyone that age would know this, let alone sing it in public - would they? My gran always sang them to me growing up in the 70s- all the old 'music hall' classics. But they aren't really a thing at all now, are they? Maybe it's 'retro'

If it's retro I'm right on trend.
#Let's all do down the Strand ( have a banana...)

'I've got a lavverly bunch of coconuts'
oo-er
I'm definitely northern- but you have to sing them like Barbara Windsor.

Ha ha!
And one for the Property board ( or me at the moment in house moving hell)
#My old man says follow the van, and don't dilly dally on the way....

It's funny how I remember so many. But I don't remember ever really being taught them.
It's the same way I'm a bit sad my dc don't know all the traditional Christmas Carols properly- especially dd2-they stopped doing them much in primary, even the choir Christmas concerts started featuring random songs like things from the Lion King. and we aren't church go-err, so she won't earn them there. She played steel pans at her final year 6 concert- and played 'Diana ' by Paul Anka - that well known festive classic (Made a change from 'Price tag'- 10 years of dc learning steel pans at the school- I hated Price Tag).

*learn them

I don't think you need to earn Christmas Carols

I agree. I don't remember learning the Lord's prayer or the National Anthem either, but I certainly know them.

I had to sing a medley of Music Hall songs in a concert a few years ago ( not my choice) and I realised how many I knew. Sad!

Fuzzy I was shocked to discover, that dd2 (probably the other 2, but they are a little bit older and not in 'school')doesn't know the National Anthem properly (well, the first verse ,at least!)- this was around the Jubilee- and then subsequently the Queen's funeral. I mean, we don't sing it on a daily basis and I'm sure she has been taught it, but I suppose it just doesn't get sung at events as much as it once did (at least not things she goes to- things like Brownies were cut short by covid- and even then, I think they cut back on the 'monarchy' stuff).

She recognised it from the Olympics.

“…off went the van with me home packed in it, I walked behind with me old cock linnet”
Sung with not a hint of a Midlands accent.

We sing that tune but with different, very very different, words at the football.

#well i dillied, I dallied, dallied and dillied, lost me way and don't know where to roam, Well you can't trust a special like an old time copper when you can't find your way home"

Read and learn, gobbyplod.
