    I like a bit of ukelele too, Smithy. Maybe give this Peter & The Test Tube Babies classic, as played by The Pukes, a listen...

    Back from tonight's gig. Two really good young support acts - Mrs B had The Blue Carpet Band down as the best thing on the bill.

    Me? I'm never going against TV Smith and The Adverts back catalogue, although the pace has upped with the new band...

    Bizarrely, we were going yesterday but Mrs B pulled up lame and could only make the gig on heavy medication. The Clash exhibition has had to be rescheduled for a later date.

    Good to know that it's worth attending. I used to work just round the corner...many, many years ago

    Frank Skinner is a major George Formby fan. He made this documentary that I've been meaning to dig out for you. Finally, I've got round to it...



    Enjoy...if it's your sort of thing.

    Darn you,Brian.I'm going to look for George Formby films! Ugly bugger,but totally brilliant.I used to wonder if Liverpool fans looked like him!
    Had a hard time with his missus,apparently!
